Midnight

Product Information

The arrival of Jasmine, a new girl at school who immediately befriends Violet, seems like it might change Violet's life for the better.

Description of the book: Violet has always been in the shadow of her mesmerising, controlling brother Will, and when a shocking secret about Will’s past is revealed, things get even worse. The Best Sleepover in the World is the long-awaited sequel to Jacqueline Wilson's hugely popular book Sleepovers! I love looking at old stuff I wrote as a kid, now I want to go to my mums house and dig out my diaries and things!Violeta en general me cae bien y siento que es un personaje con el que es fácil sentirse identificado, yo por lo menos lo he sentido así en varias ocasiones. This is a wonderful, wonderful book, absolutely enchanting, and a must-read for anyone who's ever been weird, lonely, and/or fascinated by the beautiful butterflies pinned to the corkboard of life.

Even though she adores Will, Violet refuses to spend a day with him, to go to Brompton Woods, and instead chooses to go to Jasmine's house. I don’t mind multiplot storylines as long as the main plot gets resolved and to me, the most important one here would be the relationship and emotional abuse between Will and his sister. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Will gives Violet a note to tell her to look out her window at midnight and she sees her fairies hanging from the garden tree, repaired by Will.For her, fairies are almost as real as the everyday, and the games she plays with her hand-sewn fairies mean everything to her.

This deals a lot with adoption, although I feel like there was no wrap up on it, and it could easily be extended into a second book, or maybe a series, focusing more on Will.

Violet is a lonely, 13-year-old child who is manipulated into doing things by her brother, playing games she hates and being tricked into an attic full of bats just to prove to him that she loves him. It should have been a hit based on the theme of family (including adoption), friendship and the magic of fairies. Al padre le odio por cosas parecidas, de Will puedo esperarme la mierda porque tiene 15 años y esta en una edad en que todo es asqueroso, pero ese padre se merece una colleja con una mesa, y lo digo más por su comportamiento con su esposa que por otra cosa.
