BOOK REVIEW: Exposure reviewed by Lance C.


Exposure is a book that grabs a young reader's attention. The author, Patricia Murdoch, writes about problems, issues, and concerns that ordinary students can relate to. I found the book to be an easy read. In Exposure, the main character, Julie, is constantly being bullied by a very popular girl named Dana. The book explains the difficulties Julie has with her confidence and the negative effect that Dana's teasing is having on Julie's self esteem.


The book takes an interesting turn when Julie's older brother gets involved with a rowdy group of kids. When Julie's brother mentions Dana's name, Julie quickly decides to seize the opportunity to get back at Dana for all of her past tormenting. The author keeps the readers attention through a series of of events and interesting scandals. When Julie gets the opportunity to get back at Dana, she has to decide whether revenge is worth it. The author, Patricia Murdoch, produces a suspenseful story that will continue to keep readers' attention. Exposure is an easy read about topics that young students can easily relate to.
