Thank you to Libro.FM through their Educator ALC program for the gifted audiobook of Jennifer Chan is Not Alone! All opinions in this review are my own.
I think the thing I like the most about this novel was how relatable the main character was for a middle schooler. She doesn't see herself as a bad person, but as time goes on, Mallory begins to regret some of the choices she has made. She begins to attempt to right some of her wrongs, especially with Jennifer. Because the story is told over two timelines, then and now, the reader is able to connect with Mallory before she finally reveals what she thinks made Jennifer run away.
Make sure you read/listen to the author's note at the end!
