The Honest Truth by Dan Gemeinhart

katdfleming's review against another edition

Within the first two chapters, I felt like I couldn't handle the gravitas of this book. But then I couldn't stop reading it. Read it in one sitting, turning the pages wildly, completely wrapped up in the story. Gorgeous, heartbreaking, wonderful.

Told from the heart of a boy who is wanting to have one choice be his own.

aaaaah, ik weet niet wat ik ervan vind..
Het boek is makkelijk en leest best wel snel weg. Ook omdat er veel lege pagina's in zitten. Ik vind het verhaal misschien wel iets te simpel waardoor het geen 3 sterren waard is denk ik. Toch vind ik 2 sterren te weinig en ik weet niet waarom.. Sommige dingen uit het verhaal vond ik zo realistisch en sommige totaal niet. Ook vond ik Beau echt zielig. WAAROM MOEST JE DAT IN HET BOEK VERWERKEN??

Al boven al geef ik het 2.7/5 denk ik....

I started reading this just before the Lunar New Year holiday but I took it to school with me thinking I would read it on the bus and ended up forgetting it on my desk! It got buried under some papers for a day or two and I eventually remembered to bring it home and finish it.
Have tissues handy.

I liked it. I would have liked it better if I had been a middle school student (and thus haven't read SO many books just like this), but I can tell many of my students will enjoy this.

I Freaking loved this book! It was so ah-mazing. I loved Beau and his loyalty and Mark and his determination. I loved Jessie's love for her BFF.

I LOVED IT ALL! <3
