The Sorta Sisters
By: Adrian Fogelin

This book is about this girl named Anna. She lived alone with her adoptive mother Johnette and was considered to be "a little light on friends." Then, one day, Anna got a letter from a girl that lived on the other side of the country, her name was Mica. Even though they had never met, they continued to write back and forth to each other.

The reason I gave this book a 0 was because I decided to drop it after forty pages. I considered this book incredibuly predictable, there was basically no surprise involved. Every time I would finish a chapter, I almost knew exactly what would happen in the next chapter. Also, the author, Adrian Fogelin, didn't use any attention grabbing techniques. I found myself constantly losing focus and I had to go back and reread a lot of the time. The overall plot of this book was repetative, I've read many books that have the same overall idea as this book. Throughout the whole time I read this book, I wasn't excited to know what happened next, because I sort of already knew... there were no surprises. Therefore, I rate The Sorta Sisters a zero, since I never decided to finish it.
