This book is perfect for secondary school students. It has lots of important issues but they are not always solved, for example Maya being treated as a Muslim. I believe her parents were very harsh not letting her go to Film School. I liked the ending because it proved that you CAN do what you want when it means so much to you.
Moonrise, Sarah Crossan
They think I hurt someone.
But I didn’t. You hear?
Cos people are gonna be telling you
all kinds of lies.
I need you to know the truth.
Joe hasn’t seen his brother for ten years, and it’s for the most brutal of reasons. Ed is on death row.
But now Ed’s execution date has been set, and Joe is determined to spend those last weeks with him, no matter what other people think …
From one-time winner and two-time Carnegie Medal shortlisted author Sarah Crossan, this poignant, stirring, huge-hearted novel asks big questions. What value do you place on life? What can you forgive? And just how do you say goodbye?

Man! This book is basically emotions on a plate. It’s about the life of Joe Moon and it hasn’t always dealt him a good hand. His brother has been framed for killing and is on Death Row.It sucks back to memories of when Joe was little, and his Mum didn’t care much for him so Ed was his Guardian.
I can’t find any negatives about this book, however I bet you won’t be able to not cry by the end of it.
