Book Review of Hope and Other Punch Lines

Hope and Other Punch Lines
reviewed on + 34 more book reviews


Book 14 towards my goal of 240! 4/5 stars for this hard hitting YA Contemporary. This story focuses on a girl who became a symbol of surviving 9/11 when a photo is published with her as a baby the day the towers fell. It discusses survivor stories, as well as loss. Abby doesn't want to be known as "Baby Hope" anymore, she just wants to be Abby. She also has a secret of her own she's hiding. Love the cover. Good story with his characters. Loved the dual narration.
