“A matter of trust” is a really good book. I highly recommend that my fellow students read this book. It is a short book but it is really good. It tells the story of a girl named Darcy who is a sophomore. She attends a school named Bluford. It also tells us what kinds of positive and negative things that she experienced in her life. Her best friend Brisana is very jealous of Darcy’s new friend so she tries to make Darcy’s life a living hell by telling her lies. Brisana tells Darcy that Hakeem (Darcy’s boyfriend) is her boyfriend. She has negative thoughts about Hakeem being attracted to other females and not her. But the drama doesn’t stops there. Darcy’s father ran out on her family 5 years ago and he retuned. He begs the family for forgiveness. Jamee (Darcy’s little sister) acts as if he never left. But Darcy and her mother aren’t sure if they really want to but their lives back in his hands. At the end the whole story was based on trust. Darcy learned to trust her boyfriend. Darcy and Brisana are cool with each other again. And Darcy finally accepts her father as her guardian again. Not only that but her mother and her father are a couple again. The book taught me something. /it taught me to love, and trust my love ones. And it taught me to trust my boyfriend or any other loved one. Without trust there isn’t anything.
