English abomination

in English this term we have been reading the novel abomination by Robert Swindells. I really enjoyed the book and I would recommend it. it is about a girl called Martha who is different from other kids because of her parents are part of a group called the righteous so they have different views on things and because of this Martha gets bullied at school. then one day a boy called Scott moves to Martha's town and starts at her school. they become friends and have ups and downs like every one does but they are still best friends. one day Martha tells Scott a big secret that her parents made her keep when Scott learns it they go on a big adventure almost and by the end of the book they have sorted it all out and they live happily ever after or as much as you can they are both happy lets put it that way. if you have never read this book I highly recommend it and every thing else that he has wrote he is a very good writer.
