Under The Tuscan Sun: At Home In Italy
by Frances Mayes
SO BORiNG! (1/24/2007)
I am not a reader but when it is good I love to read. And Under The Tuscan Sun sucked! Like someone already said it is hardly Italian and way more American. I am half Italian and I know how things go.. and this lady had no plot what so ever!
The Sisterhood of The Traveling Pants
by Ann Brashares
Not All That. (12/21/2006)
This book was okay. I say this because I'm not really into the whole girly girl stuff.I mean the movie was way better. Even though I didn't like it as much girly girls should read this. But i thought it was cool how the pants fit the girls. Even tho thats like really weird... & then it was funny how the little girl was going to die.. idkk why?? I think cause my friend (Laura) when we went to watch the movie she like took it to the heart and started crying. So yea its an okay book. But I'm definitely not reading the second one!!! lmao.
A Child Called It: One Child's Courage to Survive
by Dave Pelzer
GREAT B0OK! (12/21/2006)
This book is very touching because it shows other how lucky they are to have a good family. And like for kids to say that their life sucks and to read this book is like wow they have no idea!!!! What spoiled little kids we have these days! But my point this is a very good book and everyone that says that their life sucks should read this book because THEY HAVE NO IDEA!
The Lost Boy: A Foster Child's Search for the Love of a Family
by Dave Pelzer
Great Book! (12/12/2006)
This book is over all very sad, but it is so good to read. I hate to read personally, but when it came to "Child Called It" I wouldn't put it down. And now I am reading "The Lost Boy" and this book is also very touching and very excellent! Next I WILL be reading "Man Named Dave".
GREAT BOOK!!
