COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Nice read during the Olympics! submitted by Juliettie on August 1, 2012, 7:27am A good story to read during the Olympics. One of the storylines involves a child who is seriously ill and I honestly wished she could have been written as just a child depressed or psychologically neglected by her parents' rigorous training schedules. I'm not a fan of reading about kids potentially dying. But, I got a feeling I could handle the ending (it's a good book---predictable, but good) so I kept at it. Definitely a good beach or bedtime read and perfect for this month!
