Great submitted by ljq on July 26, 2011, 6:07pm Fantastic book about a curious girl, a spring that if you drink the water you become immortal and a family that's old, very, very old.

A Classic submitted by goblue2911 on July 7, 2012, 3:27pm An absolutely great book. Enough description to produce vivid images, but not at all over-written. Overall, a sensational take on the age-old question of immortality.

Better than ever submitted by Stanley on July 21, 2013, 2:15pm It tells you a tale the should never stop

Heart felt submitted by zidrissu on August 20, 2013, 4:47pm This book was incredible. It makes you think about the consequences of being immortal, which is new considering these days everyone wants a fountain of youth and immortality. I like how the ending is special and unexpected considering it's revolving around a very young girl who could have made an insanely life changing choice

Important submitted by Lucy S on July 27, 2014, 4:46am This is a great book that makes you realize immortality comes a cost.

timeless submitted by airgood on August 1, 2014, 9:10am I read this as a child and recently revisited it. Such a great story with deep discussions of life and aging.

Great Book submitted by peterflorence on July 13, 2015, 12:51pm This is a great book. The beginning is a little slow, but stick with it and it gets really exciting.
