A secret too dangerous to share.

Abomination is a powerful and thought-provoking book that tackles the theme of religious extremism and its impact on children. It is a recommended read for young adults who enjoy exploring complex moral and ethical dilemmas. The most unique feature of the book is its ability to create empathy for Martha, a young girl torn between her loyalty to her family and her growing awareness of the injustices their beliefs have caused.

Description

Martha is 12 and very different from other kids—no TV, no computer, no cool clothes, and especially no friends. It's all because of her parents, who are strict members of a religious group called the Brethren. Their rules dominate Martha's life, and one rule is the most important of she must never ever invite anyone home. If she does, their terrible secret—Abomination—could be revealed. But as Martha makes her first real friend in Scott, a new boy at school, she begins to wonder, Is she doing the right thing by helping to keep Abomination a secret? And just how far will her parents go to prevent the truth from being known?
