Representaion In Favor Of Books The Arsonist
It starts with a fire. A diary. A murder.Molly Mavity is not a normal teenage girl. For one thing, she doesn’t believe that her mother killed herself three years ago. And since her father is about to be executed for his crimes, Molly is convinced that her mother will return to her soon. Finally, the hole in her heart will stop hurting.
Pepper Al-Yusef is not your average teenage boy. A Kuwaiti immigrant with serious girl problems and the most embarrassing seizure dog in existence, he has to write a series of essays over the summer…or fail out of school.
And Ava Dreyman—the brave and beautiful East German resistance fighter whose murder at seventeen led to the destruction of the Berlin Wall—is unlike anyone you’ve met before.
When Molly and Pepper are tasked with finding Ava’s murderer, they realize there’s more to her life—and death—than meets the eye. Someone is lying to them. And someone out there is guiding them along, desperate for answers.

We sound like really dumb comic book characters, I said. The cabbage and the pepper, out to solve an epic mystery. What a seriously bizarre and random book.I was a huge fan of Oakes's debut - The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly - a couple of years back, and I was really excited to get my hands on her second YA novel, but The Arsonist was SO WEIRD. I love books that do something different, but it was almost like this book was trying too hard to be quirky.How can I even explain? Well... it's a storySo after finishing the amazingness that was Minnow Bly...I NEED THIS.
Man. That was unexpectedly brilliant. --"It was a pleasure to burn." A chilling, magnetic story, I had to keep reminding myself it was fiction. I don't think I've read anything like this before, but the historical style reminded me of Julie Berry. You will find little romance within these pages. There is mystery, friendship, and of course, arson in many forms. This book is more than its beautiful cover hints at, I can't even begin to explain it. The Arsonist is one of my favorite reads this
Through a series of circumstances, two California teens become involved with solving a mystery that happened in 1989 in Cold War East Germany. I liked the characters and the mystery, but thought the story bogged down at the half way point. I also wanted to know more about Molly's dad and why he committed the crimes. With a bit more editing, this could've been an even better book.
Loved it, but umm Molly wasn't very likeable lol
Uuummmmm....I am an indisputable fan of The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly as is evidenced by my review of it.But, The Arsonist is, well, it's caca.I have no other way of describing it. I can't even point the genre in which this book belongs to. The book is convoluted, scattered, idiotic and simply plain boorish.
Very interesting and has some good twists and turns. Love how the story came together throughout. Was a little slow for about the first half but overall it was entertaining. Overall, I good mystery and it has diary entries! I love books with letters, diary or journal entries. Adds so much to a story!
