I�m not sure where to begin with SWITCH. The premise of the book was really interesting to me, but I feel like aspects of the book were kind of over my head. In the book, time has stopped for about a year. Life is continuing to move on despite time being stopped, but teens and adults alike are trying to figure out a solution to keep order and keep society moving. Amidst this crisis we have a teenager named Truda who throws javelin and is trying to figure out why her father is protecting a switch in their home by building boxes around it. Throughout the book, Truda removes nails from the boxes that her father builds in an attempt to find her way to the switch.
I felt so lost reading this book. I understand the themes the author was going for, comparing the time crisis in the book to the real life pandemic we are all living through. SWITCH made me think about the ways that, as a society, we often burden our youngest to come up with solutions to problems that older generations have made worse (things like climate change come to mind). The book had hints of magical realism and lots of symbolism, so if that�s your jam I think you would enjoy this one. SWITCH was a very unique read that was a little difficult for me to fully grasp, but it�s a super short read that I would encourage people to check out if it sounds interesting to you! Thank you BookishFirst and Penguin Teen for the finished copy.
