Book Review: THE PROBABILITY OF MIRACLES

Author: Wendy Wunder
Number of Pages: 360
Publisher: Razorbill
Release Date: December 8, 2011

Cam Cooper has spent countless hours in hospitals over the past seven or so years, fighting with all her might to get better. So when the doctors tell her there's nothing more they can do, she feels lost. That's when her mother decides to bring Cam and her younger sister, Perry, on a road trip to Promise, Maine. It is in this small New England town that miracles are said to occur. As the story progresses, Cam learns more about her family, romance, what it means to be happy, and above all, herself.

I really enjoyed this book! Usually I do not like really sad books, but this one was actually very good. Like John Green's The Fault in Our Stars, it was sad at the end, but the book itself more than made up for it. The writing was excellent as well. It was very descriptive and the characters- especially the main one, Cam- had a lot of depth to them. I loved how it talked about Disney World, because I have an obsession with that place, and I could picture almost everything that was mentioned. Overall, this book was great!

My Rating: :0) :0) :0) :0) :0) 5 out of 5 smileys. No complaints here!

Would I recommend it to a friend?: Yes. Even if you do not normally enjoy sad books, please read this! It is well worth your time.

Hugs,
