BLY is a refreshing coming of age story in the modern world as narrated by a girl named Nellie Bly based on her everyday existence. It is a brilliant storytelling with the author's very unique style of capturing and representing the very complex thoughts and emotions of the youth today as they deal with life's mysteries and complexities involving family, school, friendship as well as the social issues in a fast paced changing world. The book is enlightening in a way that allows you to understand and empathize with the joys and tribulations of today's young adults and in the process bridges the gap between the past and present generations. From start to finish, this book is thought provoking, funny and intriguing all at the same time. This is the author's first published book, and as a kid herself, Amelie Fajardo, has truly expressed the voice of her generation loud and clear; it's a must read for both the young and old alike.
