"Ambomination" is book you start you can't put it down.It is told by two narrators,Martha and Scott.Martha is a girl who is bullied at school and has been dragged in to the righteous religion by her very strict parents.She is not like many other children her age because of her religion he family don't even own a television.All her clothes are hand made by her mother.She is very isolated in her home as she can't bring friends back to her house because of her family secret.
Scott is an very ordinary boy who is really popular at school.He has just moved to the area and takes part in chasing Martha home from school everyday with the rest of the bullies.He then begins getting really friendly with Martha.He eventually falls in love with her.
Martha's parents keep a small child in the cellar in a cage.(he belongs to martha's sister who has moved away).This is a very moving story which i reccommend you read.

heya, good start just add more detail. Look at others reviews to get a good idea of what I mean. Let me know if you want this re-rated. x

I wanted more ! Sounds like the sort of book that would be right up my street - where can I buy it from and how much should I expect to pay ? Where and when is it set and what tense is it written in ? Is it a true story as this would make it even more appealing. You definitely sound like you found this book moving and recommendable so sell it to us ! Let me know if you want me to re-rate and I'll keep my eyes and ears open for this one. Ax
