After the First Death by Robert Cormier
3.0
REQUIRED READING: ROBERT CORMIER
I was excited to read this book. I wasn't quite sure what to expect from from Cormier; I was expecting something similar to Caroline B. Cooney: suspenseful, but not depressing. I had planned on reading Tenderness in my free time, but now I don't know if I want to. The novel was unsatisfying. I expected there to be some kind of hope at the ending, some kind of justice. There wasn't. I closed the book and didn't know what to think. I think I like it more in retrospect then I did actually reading it.
