There is a girl named Hollis. And she has been to a lot of fosters home and has always ran away. But is always caught after a few days of hiding. And one time she went to this one family's house that she loved. And every day that she is at the new foster house she thinks back to all the crazy adventures that she had when she lived with the old man and Izzy, and why she ended up having to leave. And she wishes that she would have never had to have left. And while she stays at the new foster house she and Josie will go through crazy adventures no one could ever have expected.

Hollis woods is a really exciting book that people should read if they like realistic fiction. In this story hollis woods goes through hard times to try and forgive herself. Hollis Woods is definitely a book that  would recommend.

Hollis takes the reader through a real live like adventure about her trying to forgive herself. She reflects on her memories about what she should have done differently.When she goes to the cabin to help protect her and Josie she is worried that the Old Man won't forgive her like she won't forgive herself. She explains her daily life and her daily life with the old man and Izzy so well.

Her story is sad and will make your appreciate what you have. She has been put in over 5 different foster homes. She loves the person that she is with currently but won't be able to stay with her unless things change. She loved when she was staying with the Old Man and Izzy but know because of one mistake she doesn't want to go back.

She includes so much detail about her life so well. When she is in Josie's house she exclaims how the house and wooden figures look so well. She can recall the past so well with such vivid definition about what happened. When ever she is talking about what something taste likes or looks like she describes it so vividly the reader can feel like there in the room with her.

I would highly recommend this book. Because, it’s a very good book that is realistic fiction so this situation could actually happen to someone in real life. And because, it describes life like events and it leaves you at good cliff hangers at the end of each thinking she has, so it makes you want to keep reading to find out what's gonna happen.
