Look Past By Eric Devine

For a few weeks now I've been reading a book called 'Look Past' by Eric Devine sometimes on my free time or in class. The good thing about this book for me is that it keeps me entertained when I read it. Its surprising for me because I'm never entertained by a book. I also never made time to read books either. So far I've read up to chapter 6. These few chapters is mostly about two main characters named Avery and Mary. Avery is a transgender boy and really has never had somebody who has accepted him for him. He's always been rejected by everyone. Adults and kids his age. He's always had a good relationship with this girl named Mary. Why? because she was the only girl who accepted him for who he is. They've had this bond since they were little kids. Avery never had a good relationship with somebody else before, especially from a girl. He's always had feelings for Mary but never actually told her how he feels about her before. I believe what held him back was Marys father. Marys father is a local pastor thats very strict of course. He's transphobic and has made rude comments about Avery. Avery makes it very clear that he hates Marys father too. 




this is me reading
After Avery tells us about his relationship with Mary, he then talks about the present. Avery has recently found out that Mary has gone missing and nobody knows where she went. Things get worse later. Its been discovered that Mary was murdered and the killer is still on the loose. This brings a lot of worry and panic in town. Anybody could be murdered next. Avery wants to know who did this or why but everyone is having a difficult time finding out who the murderer is. Not many clues either for me to find out who it was either. So far I've been enjoying this book and I do want to know what happens next.
