Book Review: Marsh & Me


Marsh & Me

by Martine Murray

Knopf Books for Young Readers
Pub Date 19 Feb 2019


I am reviewing a copy of Marsh & Me through Random House Children’s and Netgalley:


Joey desires to have someone to talk to about music, he wants to be part of the group. The problem is he is painfully shy and that always seems to get in the way. He often escapes to his secret place on a hill but discovers one day a young girl, a strange young girl has invaded the hill and looks like a spaceship. The hill is the place where he can be himself. Joey decides he needs to stake his claim so he goes to the girl he calls Marsh, short for Martian and finds that she’s been busy making herself an imagined Spaceship as well as building an imaginary world.


This imaginary world hides his secrets but this may be the thing to bring Joey out of his shell. When Joey decides to follow Marsh home he discovers her life is not at all what he expected. He soon finds out too that they are both passionate about music.


I give Marsh & Me five out of five stars!


Happy Reading!
