Title: Mediocre Fiction
Review: Jacquelyn Woodson disappoints in HUSH. The best part of the novel is the back cover: plot synopsis. The book does address the loss created for a family entering Witness Protection and herein the viewpoint of Evie/Toswiah definitely reveals that childlike perspective. Overall as a teacher who suggests books for students, this one paints Jehovah's Witnesses in a negative light, lacks suspense and action, and does little to redeem the parents at the story's end. This book had the opportunity to demonstrate how a family can heal from tragedy but missed this mark as well. So why read it? The 12-year-old's monologue and interpretation as narrator tells this story well.
