#10 -- Somebody

Somebody by Nancy Springer is about a girl who doesn't know who she is.  She knows she is somebody.  She has had so many names in the past she has forgotten which "somebody" she happens to be at this time in her life.  She moves around every few months with her father and her brother.  She is not allowed a telephone or access to the internet.  She is told that her mother is a very bad person.  But is any of that the truth?  She aims to find out.  The whole book is about a girl's search for her true identity.

This was a short read at only 117 pages, but one that was very good at keeping me on the edge of my seat.  I wanted the main character Sherica to find of where she came from so badly.  You will have to read the book to see if she finds her way home!
