Book 133: What Goes Up by Christine Heppermann
#30booksin30days (book 4) and #youbetYA2020 (book 3). Working my way through the month of challenges.
A YA novel in verse, is the story of Jorie who's life is a mess. She is trouble by her father's affair, and her mother's seeming acceptance of the whole thing. She is acting out of character going to parties, and breaking up with her boyfriend. Through the whole book the discussion of her world in relationship to mushrooms.
This book was not for me, the mushroom metaphors throughout the book were distracting. When the book finished I was not sure what I read or what I was supposed to get from the book. Reviewed for ages 14 and older, this book was published in August this year. My rating 2 ⭐️.
