Fake ID is a really good book. It’s about this girl that is always moving from town to town with her mom. Each time she moves she has to get another name. The way this is done is that her mom goes into the library, closes her eyes, picks a book, and then reads from it. The first female name that is read becomes her daughter’s name. Then her daughter must go up to the librarian and requests a library card in that name so that she has a form of identification. Her mother won’t let her listen to music and says that it brings bad luck. The two main things that her mom won’t talk about are why they keep moving around and why she doesn’t like music. Towards the middle of the story, the girl’s mom disappears, and the she only has six days to find out who she really is and what’s going on with her life before she is put into foster care. 

      This book is written so well that it has your attention from beginning to end. If you’re a fan of mysteries, you’ll love this book. It has a very deep and hidden plot that takes a little in-depth reading to uncover. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read and is interested in mysteries. This book kept my attention so well that I had it finished in about one day.
