Marietje.Halbertsma | Jan 9, 2022 |  When You Reach Me is a very interesting book about 6th grade Miranda after she starts receiving mysterious notes. I think this is a great book for all students because it is a very interesting mystery that captures your attention from the start. I also really like the book because it details how losing a friend can really affect you. I know how it feels to feel like a friend is shutting you out, and this book can help give students who need support the knowledge that they are not alone. As the reader connects with Miranda's search for who is writing the notes, the reader gets to analyze and think critically about all the relationships she has within her life. (  ) Leamoore | Nov 19, 2021 | WOW! About halfway through I became addicted to it, I had to know the end. I'm not quite sure about my rating. About the time I got addicted to it I also got a nasty feeling, not sure whether is was nervousness or plain fear. I haven't been that nervous about an ending since I don't know when. It's a masterpiece of a plot though... (  ) OutOfTheBestBooks | Sep 24, 2021 | great read but would recommed reading a Wrinkle in Time first. amazi ng ( ) MorbidLibrarian | Sep 18, 2021 | In this award-winning, gripping novel, a 12-year-old girl living in New York City, whose favorite book is A Wrinkle in Time, receives mysterious notes that seem to defy the laws of time and space. NCSS | Jul 23, 2021 |
 This book has a very nice climax when given. Exciting and has much significance to it. Symbolic and wonderful.  ...a story in which characters really come alive during those few months we spend with them, when their lives are shaped for ever. In this taut novel, every word, every sentence, has meaning and substance. A hybrid of genres, it is a complex mystery, a work of historical fiction, a school story and one of friendship, with a leitmotif of time travel running through it. Most of all the novel is a thrilling puzzle. Stead piles up clues on the way to a moment of intense drama, after which it is pretty much impossible to stop reading until the last page. Eventually and improbably, these strands converge to form a thought-provoking whole. Stead ('First Light') accomplishes this by making every detail count, including Mirandas name, her hobby of knot tying and her favorite book, Madeleine LEngles 'A Wrinkle in Time'. Its easy to imagine readers studying Mirandas story as many times as shes read LEngles, and spending hours pondering the provocative questions it raises. Stead's novel is as much about character as story. Miranda's voice rings true with its faltering attempts at maturity and observation. The story builds slowly, emerging naturally from a sturdy premise. As Miranda reminisces, the time sequencing is somewhat challenging, but in an intriguing way. The setting is consistently strong. The stores and even the streets–in Miranda's neighborhood act as physical entities and impact the plot in tangible ways. This unusual, thought-provoking mystery will appeal to several types of readers. Pertany a aquestes col·leccions editorialsContingut aInspirat en

I appreciated the descriptions of the interactions between the kids, their different lifestyles and was of viewing the world. Rebecca Stead does not shy away from weaving in serious issues such as racism, pregnant women in jail, bullying and homelessness. It made the story more realistic.
All in all I like the book, but it does have some flaws. To me it does not have the caliber of most Newberry Medal winners. (
