The foster child by Jenny Blackhurst.

When child psychologist Imogen Reid takes on the case of 11-year-old Ellie Atkinson, she refuses to listen to warnings that the girl is dangerous.

Ellie was the only survivor of a fire that killed her family. Imogen is convinced she's just a sad and angry child struggling to cope with her loss.

But Ellie's foster parents and teachers are starting to fear her. When she gets upset, bad things seem to happen. And as Imogen gets closer to Ellie, she may be putting herself in danger...

✮ ✮

So to start off I really like how this book gets straight to the

story, from page one you know roughly what is going on and

why! Which I love!

The chapters jump from character to character which to be

honest is a little confusing to start with but you do get used

to it and understand why its done this way when you get a bit

further in and know the characters.

Some parts of the book for me hit hard the bullying the child

went through, I just felt so much for her, going through

bullying myself as a child I could honestly say I felt exactly

how she must have been feeling in the book.

The story really shows how people are so quick to judge

without actually finding out the facts or the truth first, it

really opens your eyes on how this happens on an everyday

basis in life and to be honest were all guilty of judging too

quickly, aren’t we?

As you get nearer to the end of the book there is defiantly

some twists in it, you think you've just found out what is

going on then it all changes, you finally go ah ok I get that

then BAM it changes again and it really does leave you with a

:O ‘Mouth open’ type moment and I have to admit I kinda

loved it!

I really did enjoy this book as I said some parts of the book are intense but most defiantly worth the read! I can not wait to read more of Jenny Blackhurst's work!

Ji-woo dreams of becoming a writer and is back in college giving it a second shot. But then Weon-gyu, her first love, comes back into her new life. Will she give up on her dreams or will she write them a happy ending? So… this book is a nice short read, something nice and easy to pick up. I read this on holiday and I wanted something that I could get stuck into but something that wasn’t going to take all my time up if I got stuck into it and to be honest this book did just that I actually finished it in 2 nights. For me personally, I would have liked a bit more background on the characters that are in the book so we could relate to them a bit more. I liked how to story is about a love you once had can turn up at any time
