THE POSSIBLE
By Tara Altebrando
Bloomsbury USA Children's’ Books
In exchange for an honest review,
I received a complimentary copy of THE POSSIBLE from the publisher through NetGalley. Thank you-NetGalley and
Bloomsbury USA Children’s Books.
This a book that middle schoolers and high schoolers will enjoy. They will like the romance, chance at national fame for Kaylee, the possibilities of “poltergeist activity or telekinetic power”, and romance.
I didn’t really enjoy reading this book.
Spoiler:
I guess my biggest problem with this book was some of it was unbelievable to me. I just could not get my head around the story when the unbelievable things happened. One issue was the fact that the reporter would talk to an underage girl without her parents consent and then the parents would consent to the whole idea of the podcast. At the beginning of the book, the parents seemed like they were reliable characters, but when they did this, they became unbelievable to me. ( Old woman reading a YA book). The unbelievable part that sealed the deal for me was the court scene. I realize that our justice system is a mess, but I do not think they would allow the fiasco that is described in the book. I think even teens would have issues with this part.
