Remembering Raquel is a funny, touching, imaginative, and quick read. It is also a mystery a la the movie Rashoman has everyone is trying to figure out if Raquel's death was an accident, a murder, or suicide. Best YA book I read this year. ( )

This book is a quick read, but extremely thought-provoking. I didn't expect it to be as interesting as it was. I think this book might be a good book for middle school girls to read. ( )
