read by Tara Sands
genre: YA mystery
Seventh grader Sammy Keyes has a best friend Marisa and a nemesis in Heather. I've heard some kids rave about these books, so thought I'd better read one. I will need to actually read a print book, though, because Sands definitely affected the way I experienced this book. She did a fine job, but her voice work kind of grated on me. The story was interesting enough - I'll continue to booktalk it to sixth graders. The crux of the intertwining story lines is that honesty is the best policy.
