My Brother's Keeper by Patricia McCormick




Rating: 3 Stars

Okay, this isn't the best book ever, but for Patricia McCormick's second book, it's decent and an interesting read. I feel that there needs to be more development, and I think that's McCormick's flaws in this book and also a book she wrote titled Cut. I believe McCormick is still learning the ropes to writing novels, and she's on the way. I'm confident if she writes another book, it will be better than My Brother's Keeper and Cut.

This book is about a boy who is covering up his brother's drug abuse. It could be a lot better if there had been more development, like I said before. It lacks a lot of stuff. I feel like I could go and build off of what she already wrote.

But the story plot is interesting, and realistic enough to keep a reader interested. It's a quick read, only took me a couple of hours. If you like Cut, then you'll enjoy this.
