Summer Reading Book Review- When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead

This excellent book, written by Rebecca Stead, takes place in New York, NY. Miranda, a 12-year-old middle school girl's mom, is going to be on the game show The Million Dollar Pyramid. Miranda's best friend, Sal, gets punched by a kid named Marcus and, for some reason, doesn't want to be her friend anymore. As Miranda struggles through friendship she starts getting mysterious notes and things start getting stolen from her apartment. The notes say that something bad is going to happen to someone she cares about. Clearly the writer of the notes knows something she doesn't.

This book is perfect for teens who love mysteries and adventure. I loved this book very much because something exciting happens around every corner. I mostly enjoyed the ending to the story. Will you?
