Title: Letters from the inside
Author: John Marsden

The title is the perfect title to explain why the two girls write to each other. The title is telling you that the two girls write to each other what they feel about everything, they write what they about everything, the write what they think and feel from the inside of their heart.

The best part of the book was when Mandy find out that Tracey is not the girl what she said she was.

Ther is not a terrible parrt in the book what was dull because they are letters and mostly ther is one letter that is boring but the next one not and so you don't get a part what is borign but little pieces which are not that exciting.

The period of time in the story is not that important because it is not really a story, you've got letters. And in those letters the girl write what they feel its not very important when they write it. The book is written like how they lived at that moment. And the book is published round 1990 so the girls were writing to each other roughly 1990.

I loved the book but the end was not how I wanted it to end. I don't like it when you've got still questions at the end.

Mandy wash not really chancing in the book. But Tracey does she got two faces in the story at first she is a sweet cute girl who's got the perfect life but than Mandy found out she is lying and Tracey tells the true story about her life.
The book begin at 11 February and ends at 11 February.

There is no message in this book, its just a good story and that's the reason I like to read the book.

It is not really a story who somebody tells. Just two girls who are writing to each other.

At firs Mandy believes Tracey when she tells she is going to Prescott HIgh but later Mandy found out that's not true en Tracey tells her where she really is and that is in Garret ( it's a maximum security place, where they put you if you're bad, and if you're worse than bad they put you in a Block). Tracey sits in a BLock.
The place were Tracey is inmportant about her life.

Summary of the story:

Mandy answered on a ad on a boring Sunday. She begins telling about her life. And tracey writes back and so they begin to write to each other. When Mandy gives a letter to a boy from Prescott High (the same school were Tracey is going to). BUt he told her that there is no Tracey on Prescott High. So Mandy rang the office and she gets the same answer that she's not going to Prescott High. Than TRacey explains that she used the mane of her stepfather on school and in the letters the surname of her real dad who deid by her birth. But at the begin Tracey told Mandy that her parents have been married for twenty-fife years. So Mandy writes her that.And than Tracey didn't write back. But Tracey doesn't stop because she wan't to know the truth. BUt later Tracey writes back and tells about her life in Garett. And Mandy told everything about here life. After a while Mandy get Tracey so far to tell the reason why she is in Garett. So she told that her dad killed her mum and that she stepped in his footsteps. After that letter Mandy stopped writing. And when Tracey sends a letter she gets them back unread.
