Miss Smithers by Susan Juby
Humour
i thought it a pretty unique plotline, different from my other recent ya reads at least. it was funny. i chuckled at the word-misusages in the protagonist's narration. clever part subtitles (part one: frying pan, part two: fire).
This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.'Me Three' by Susan Juby is an interesting book perfect for the pre-teen or early teen crowd. In the book Rodney is dealing with the aftermath of his famous father's inappropriate behaviour with women who he worked with and was not married to. Throughout the book Rodney slowly comes to the realization that his father is not innocent, that his mother and sister are just as confused and hurt as he is, and that he is stronger and more adventurous than he ever imagined.
The format of the book is interesting, it consists of letters that Rodney writes to his friend Larry, but never sends. Larry was a friend from 'before Rodney's
Dad's fall from public favour' and never responds to any of Rodney's texts, emails, or letters.
The book shows that Rodney can prevail, despite all the negative's happening in his life. This is an important life lesson that can benefit any child. 'Me Three' is worth the read.… (more)
