Nothing But the Truth: Seventh Post (Final Thoughts)

Posted in Fiction, Teen at 12:11 am by Rosepixie

Nothing But the Truth (and a few white lies)This book ended really well.  Tying everything back to words was a brilliant move.  The final truth statement was great and did a good job of incorporating themes from the book and working them together.  It read like something that Patty might actually have written at that point.  I liked the outing to the naming lab as well.  It was subtle but nicely crystallized the issue with labels introduced at the very beginning of the book and continued with the introduction and exploration of the word “hapa”.  She carried that theme really nicely and I love how she tied it all up at the end.  This was, overall, a very good book.
