The Chain Letter

The Chain Letter is a Realistic Fiction book about two girls who get chain letters from a mystery person! The chain letters told them to send it to ten people and Livvie decided that chain letters are dumb and don't need to be sent or give anyone bad luck.That's when the bad luck starts! Livvie thinks the only way to stop the bad luck is to find out who sent it. While this is all happening Livvie's mom gets invited to her best friends dad's Thanksgiving celebration and Livvie is super mad. Her mom doesn't think Phil is flirting on her,she thinks he's just trying to be nice. This book was really interesting and it was kinda like a mystery to find out who sent her the chain letter, who is stalking Mr.Finch and what is Mr.Finch hiding upstairs. All of these things you will have to figure out in this book The Chain letter. Tell me how you liked it!!!!!! Asiya Ann-Marie Benifield
