Great job! This one keeps making the rounds on school reading lists in our area, always wondered what all the hub-bub was about....not too certain I missed anything, but you know I just might pick it up for a quick read on a break one day for a looksie myself. Thanks for sharing...and happy reading!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01067420839553243250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382384867180683130.post-429412907954221902010-08-05T11:45:52.122-04:002010-08-05T11:45:52.122-04:00Oh no, this is just another mediocre book - but I&...Oh no, this is just another mediocre book - but I'm glad you admitted it. Well, at least it's short. Still, I don't think I'll be reading it.

At the end, I wish it felt like the whole story came together!<br /><br />Nymeth - If you see this book somewhere, you should pick it up. It's definitely short, and you might enjoy it!<br /><br />Jan - I've heard that, too! I'm really surprised. But, maybe there's something I'm just not understanding about The House on Mango Street.Emidy @ Une Parolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05424121360029235229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382384867180683130.post-91242340923975122032010-08-05T07:27:30.815-04:002010-08-05T07:27:30.815-04:00I have not read this book but have read critics th...I have not read this book but have read critics that hail it as a break out book.

I like the idea of chapters that are their own stories but I also need them to develop into some wholeness at the end. <br /><br />Thanks for posting this, maybe I will skp this one.<br /><br />GinaBookscount Blogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07442283062401379540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382384867180683130.post-60178563535338510342010-08-04T10:50:21.419-04:002010-08-04T10:50:21.419-04:00hmmmm great review, but I'm just not sure it&#...hmmmm great review, but I'm just not sure it's for me :)Melissa (i swim for oceans)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06840790603713851746noreply@blogger.com
