The People of Sparks: Sequel to The City of Embers
by Jeanne DuPrau
EXTREMELY TICKED OFF AND DISSAPOINTED (6/8/2006)
you don't want to hear a lie... you want to hear the truth... and the truth is that honestly... this book sucked. no kidding. it was NOT entertaining, and it was about as far away from suspenseful as anything can get. i was EXTREMELY DISSAPOINTED, after reading the first which i thought was magnificently terrific! so read the first one! but not the second. i about the first one hundred pages of the first and then i just couldn't take it anymore. trust me, don't read it!
