11 Birthdays, by Wendy Mass, is a book that seems, at least to me, to be a great book--except I couldn't place a genre to it. If I had to, I would assign the "Fantasy" genre. However, just to say it is hard to place does not mean it wasn't a great read. Amanda and Leo have the same birthday. They celebrate it every year, except for last year--when Leo said some hurtful things about Amanda. They stopped talking for an entire year--and now, the Friday of their birthday, doesn't seem to go away. Amanda's birthday happens again and again...but nobody seems to notice. Will Leo and Amanda be able to stop this? A few birthdays...Maybe, I could live with that. But ongoing? Read on in this classic book about friendship, trickery, and birthdays.
