Review: Spare Change by Bette Lee Crosby
A Woman who is Superstitious to the Core...
A Boy who claims his Parents are Dead...
A Murderer who wants to Silence the Truth of What Happened.
Spare change see’s the story of Olivia Westerly who thinks that eleven is the unluckiest number on earth, children weigh you down and cannot let herself fall in love. She’s managed to avoid marriage for forty years but then along came Charlie Doyle. Newlyweds on they’re honeymoon when disaster strikes, things will never be the same again for Olivia.
In another city far away we see Ethan Allen Doyle, an eleven year old boy who is setting off on a journey to find his grandpa after his parents are found dead. But unfortunately for him there is someone hot on his tails.
This book is written well, it has a strong storyline and I loved the way that the stories ran so well, I soon found myself engrossed into the stories of both Olivia and Ethan. There is many scenes filled with humour and quick wit alongside scenes of sadness and heartbreak, the way the writer has wrote the scenes so beautifully is wonderful.
All in all a good read, I don’t want to give anything away but I was personally abit disappointed with the ending, but that is probably because I’d of liked to of read more
