My 10 year old raved about this book so I picked it up and read it in an afternoon. Easy to read, interesting story. Good for teaching pre-teens/teens about consequences and taking responsibility.
This book really makes you think about choosing between loyalty to friends and doing what is right. The main character's inner struggle is believable, and it is an easy read, even for reluctant readers.
