Abomination: A Review by Emily Fansom

Abomination is a book by Robert Swindells. This book tells us just how important it is to have a good friend and how hard some people’s lives are because of something or someone.
This book tells the story of a young girl called Martha and a boy called Scott.

Martha is very different from other children her age. Her parents are strict members of a religious group called the “righteous”, who’s rules forbid her from having ANY of today’s luxuries, and she is forced to keep her family’s terrible secret of Abomination covered up.
Martha is bullied at school because of her homemade clothes and miserable personality, but when Scott arrives at her school he feels sorry for her and they become best friends.

Can Martha keep her families secret hidden for any longer?
Robert Swindells has written this book in a diary form, therefore I would highly recommend this book to everyone, I am 13 and I loved it.
