Insignificant Events In The Life Of A Cactus by Dusti Bowling

Would you recommend this book? If so, who would you recommend it to, and why? If not, why not?

I would recommend this book to everybody who likes a funny, interesting story with a main character that captures your interest and forces you to continue. I recommend it because it is extremely different from other books. This is because the main character, Aven, doesn't have any arms. She was born without them, before being adopted by her parents, but her friends at home in Kansas are used to it. They've known her all her life, after all. Sure, she gets stared at in public, but she knows that her friends and her community know her for more than her armlessness. But when her dad, a restaurant manager, gets a opportunity to run a dilapidated old theme park in Arizona, Aven finds herself uprooted from her familiar surroundings, to a place where she will make new friends Connor, and Zion, who both also feel isolated. Living in a theme park isn't as interesting as Aven thought, but when she and Connor discover a old, forgotten storage shed, things suddenly get more interesting-and there may be a mystery to solve that could explain something very important.
