Vicki's Reviews > Hope Was Here

I loved this book about a 16 year old girl named Hope and her close friend Addie. Hope is a waitress at a diner, but things came to a halt at her diner when someone you'd least expect commited a horrible act against the store and the employees. Consequently, Hope and Addie take off for a small town in Wisconsin.

Through a man they meet and the circumstances of their life, they learn a great deal about growing up. Hope is a very strong character and a good role model for young girls.

I recommend this book for middle school and high school young adults. I will be recommending this book to my freshman students, girls especially. I think adults will like this book as well if they enjoy a quick and easy read.
