Review:I have to be honest, this book was painful to read. There was such an OVERWHELMING amount of typos, grammatical mistakes, and editing gaffes, that I don't know where to begin to detail them all.

This book read like a rough draft. Clearly, the author's beta team, editors, and proofreaders let her down in a very big way. Yes, I know that no book out there is perfect, no manuscript is without error. However, I highlighted 65+ mistakes in this book. And I have NO copy editing or proofreading ... Read more

Review:Waiver/Potential Spoiler Alert: I am the only person I know who did NOT gush over the "brilliance" of "When We Were Liars." So when I saw that comparisons were being made, I pretty much had the ending before I read the first page. So why, then, did I purchase it? Because Lauren Oliver wrote it. I knew her writing would be well-crafted without being so deliberately stylistic. I knew her characters would be likable. I thought all this would make it better--but it didn't. A plot twist is al...

Review:Fairly good story but the characters developed too fast. I appreciated the ending, how Ezra didn't need a girl to define the rest of his life. Until the end, I expected a typical manic pixie dream girl story but was reluctantly surprised. Read more

Review:This is not a story that needed to be told. This is the most mundane chain of events masquerading as a novel. You could learn all of the effects of rape on a young woman that this book illustrates by watching one season of Law & Order SVU. There is nothing special about it. Nothing gripping, or heart-wrenching, really.

This is a book that will either work for you or it won't. I, for one, prefer my books to have some sort of, you know, story. I understand that the point of this book wa... Read more

Review:​Very confusing in the beginning trying to keep all the players straight with so much back and forth between the characters. Once you settle in and become familiar with everyone "this is where it ends" becomes more and more of a page turner. Ms Nijkamp did an excellent job of making the reader feel we were right there sharing in all the emotions. I know this is suppose to be Young Adult Fiction, for ages 14 and up. I am well beyond that age and thoroughly enjoyed the story. I was given an ea... Read more

Review:Okay I haven't read the book yet but I think it would be great. I'm just getting it today and I can't wait but I'm giving the book 4 stars because I think its going to be little hard trying to figure out who's who I don't like books like that but I think it would be different this time I just can't wait. Get this book :) Read more

Review:Ms. Scott knows how to draw her readers into the story and give all her readers a fantastic book. I'm sure her real life experiences of her own tour of duty makes all of her books more gritty and real.

With Before I Fall we meet Noah and Beth who need each other more than they will ever know. Noah went to war whole but comes back with scars and a fear he can't fit into a world that isn't the military. Beth is taking care of her father who has physical and emotional scars from the war als... Read more

Review:I found them to be quite satisfactory. I would have made them a couple of inches taller. But all in all they finished off my borders well and made everything look complete. They are strong and sturdy as well as hooked together. I was well pleased with them. This review is for my garden edging not for this book!!!!!!! Read more

Review:I really enjoyed going back and forth between the past in the Wilds and the present in NYC.

There were several things about the ending that really frustrated me, and I did not like at all, but hey, this is a trilogy. The second book is required to have major cliffhangers, and especially ones that make you unhappy -- there have to be those resolutions in the last book.

Not a favorite, but I cannot wait for the last book to come out! Read more

Review:Gregory Peck as Atticus Fitch. That's the extent of my exposure to Harper Lee until now. Atticus as seen through the eyes of his daughter, Scout, is so much more complex. But this is the story of Scout's memories of the rural South in the early 1900s, and, in "Go Set a Watchman," her angst as she confronts the wrenching changes challenging the social norms as the nascent Civil Rights movement opens schisms and threaten to isolate her from all of those -- including Atticus -- whom she loves.
