Book Reviews of Belle Prater's Boy
Book Review: " The best book I ever read!"
Summary: 5 Stars
I strongly recommend this book. If you like mysteries this is the book for you! The characters' names and traits were phenomenal.
This book is about two cousins named Woodrow and Gypsy who share a common pain of losing a parent. Gypsy and Woodrow become very close friends. They especially stick together when the people in the town talk about their loss in front of them on purpose. Gypsy's father committed suicide and Woodrow's mother went missing or "vanished".
They helped each other deal with their pain. Gypsy also helps Woodrow feel confident in sharing thoughts and feelings about his mother and most importantly, his mother's biggest secret. The two of them also help each other face the fact that their parent left them on purpose, not because they didn't love them, but because they had so much pain inside them and they felt they could not live in the world where that pain had started.
