Review: Cicada Summer

Title: Cicada Summer
Author: Andrea Beaty
Category: Fiction, Children's
Rating: 3/5
Summary: 11-year-old Lily has a secret she has to protect at all costs, which is easy because she doesn't talk anymore.

Review: This sweet story tackles heavy topics—guilt, crime, grief—but also has a good dose of humor in some parts. I liked it, but I can't say that anything in particular stood out to me as great.
