The Girl Who Was Supposed To Die by April Henry


The Girl Who Was Supposed To Die by April Henry is a fictional book. The book is about a girl who goes into a fugue state (amnesia caused by a horrendous experience) after being told that they killed her brother. [Spoiler Alert] They meaning the man in oxblood shoes, a man in brown boots, and the one person you would never expect, her supposed Aunt Elizabeth. The girl’s name is Cady. Cady is helped by a boy named Tyler or Ty. They are tracked by a cell phone Cady stole from the man she almost killed. Cady’s family is on the run without her, because by that time it was too late. Her parent’s job has been taken over by people who plan to sell a vaccine after they contaminate the air. All of the conflicts are external conflicts. I recommend this book to people who like to be surprised with every page they turn and people who enjoy horror books and the occasional twist. I also recommend this to people who like books with a happy ending and the occasional reading of how it felt to break the arm of someone you thought you killed. I enjoyed this book because there was action and confusion from the very first page. The book was also very entertaining and kept me wondering what was coming next.
