compelling, wish it had a TADDDD more romance

Good

I've always wanted to read this but was too scared plus it's over 1,000 pages. King writes the perfect novels for long summer nights. The hundreds of pages of character development definitely pays off. A few differences from the movie that were additive. Great book if you have the guts!

Summertime is time for some magical reading after what we've experienced the past couple years. Saranna's twist in this book is a modern day take on the fairy tale characters we read about as a child. Fast forward to adulthood and experience the disappointments of the main character as she makes changes in her life. Men aren't all frogs - believe in the power of love! There are fairy godmothers everywhere, if you just believe!

Diary of a wimpy kid big shot is a great book because it shows how you should never give up on your self and always try.

A meaningful message behind this story that focused on mental health awareness especially with the main character. The author did a spectacular job at describing what Nora was enduring and the writing made you feel as if you were there. Nora decides that she is no longer needed in the world and no one wants her there so proceeds to end her life, but ends up stuck in the “in between” of death and life. She now has an opportunity to view all other lives she could have taken and where she could have ended up. I loved the mentions of regrets and how they are apart of everyone because in the end we are all human. My only issue is during the middle it felt like the book was a bit boring and I would that it was repeating itself. However, it wraps up nicely in the end. Overall, I would definitely read this book again and recommend to my friends.

I like the strange book too, like that monkey.

The Foundling featured almost all of my favorite aspects of historical fiction, from intriguing topic to realistic, engaging characters. I would have enjoyed more period detail/description but that is entirely a personal preference and in no way detracted from the overall story.

They love reading these stories again and again.

Silly
