Touchblue was an excited book that always kept you guessing. Although it did have some sad parts, this book was mainly funny. It taught children and teens what it would be like to be a foster child, moving from house to house, a new family every time; because your real home may be an unsafe environment. All in all, Touchblue is a beautiful, must-read book for all ages!

This book was one of the best books i have ever read!!! If you like World War 2 this book is a great choice. Its very sad, and I would recommend teens over the age of 12 should read.

Julie Anne Peters has created a masterpiece of a book with all the necessary elements to make it suspenseful, realistic and heartwarming.
Holland, the main character, is a 17 year-old-girl who is presumably straight- she has a boyfriend and has never crushed on a girl.
That is, before CeCe.
CeCe is a transfer student, for reasons we learn about later in the story. She is an out-and-proud lesbian who frequently wears shirts proclaiming her pride in her sexuality.
When Holland finds herself falling hard for CeCe, she naturally is confused. When she finally confronts her fear of being queer and begins to admit that she loves CeCe, she finds that nothing else has ever felt so right.
However, though her parents appear to be tolerant, when Holland's mother finds out about her daughter's sexual orientation, she is not pleased, to say the least. What does she do? To find out, you'll just have to read the book;)

I would recommend this book to LGBT youth, those who are questioning, and basically everyone else. READ IT!

This book was inspiring and educational! I learned so much about Japanese culture as well as whaling from the point of view of a 16 year old Japanese boy. I would really recommend this book!
