Jess's Reviews > Allegedly

This will definitely go down as one of my favorite books of the year. It is a completely crazy story of a nine-year-old black girl convicted of murdering a white baby...allegedly. Mary stopped speaking for years after the baby was killed, so people could only speculate what happened. A jury convicted her and she was sent to prison. Now she's 16 and pregnant and trying to set the story straight. This book is just such a good, and completely crazy, story and you won't want to put it down.
