White Crow

By Marcus Sedgwick

When a London girl named Rebecca moves to a village that feels deserted. This move turns her life dreadful! Her and her father bought a small house. When Rebecca meets a weird girl named Ferelith her dreadful life gets a bit better. The friendship between the two of them is quite strange. There are breakups and re-joining. In their great adventures around the village. On their last adventure they retrace the steps of the Doctor of the Village hall. Winterfold used to be a bustling town but got eaten away by the growling sea. The questions that Ferelith and Rebecca always were asking were whether either of them believed in God or if there is such thing as an afterlife. They wanted to know the answer to these questions so much they even put their own lives in danger to find out the answers.

I absolutely loved this book and would read it again anytime! I would also recommend it to everyone! The way this book was written it drew me into it by the first few words! I also love the way the book perspective changes all the time. There is lots more I could say about this book but the writing would be pages long!

This one of the best books I have ever read; not just in the Carnegie shortlist!
