"The Bad Place"
I had a hard time getting into this book. The characters never really grabbed me. Also, the plot was unbelievable.
"The Help"
This was a wonderful book. I wished it would't have ended. It just makes me sad to see that not so much has changed since the 60's.
"Very good but not really a "Ghost" book"
This was a very well written book but for the most part it wasn't a ghost story. There were a few creepy parts in there but that wasn't the point of the story. But, if you wanted a glimpse into the life of a transgendered person, with a few ghost stories thrown in, this is the book for you.
"very good"
I really enjoyed this book. The main character got into so many scrapes that I cringed when something was going right with her because I knew that something bad was coming. The end was a little weird, though.
"Wow"
I loved this book. I felt like I knew the characters, even the minor ones. There were a few times when I just wanted to say "get on with it!" but they were few and far between.
"Really good once you get into it"
It took a long time to get into this book, but once I did, I was hooked. The characters are very "real" and I couldn't wait to find out what they were going to do next. It was a little hard to realize what "time" you were in, since the book goes back and forth through many time periods.
"Great book"
I was a little nervous about trying this author because I didn't know anything about her. I was very pleasantly surprised. I had also guessed the plot twist, but it was still a wonderful story. I actually "knew" the characters and I was sad when it was over.
"Wonderful"
This book was wonderful. The story was very well told about an interesting subject. I was taken aback a bit because it wasn't just about Callie. There were large sections devoted to telling about her grandparents and parents in order to get to the present story.
If you don't like a musical background, don't worry, it doesn't last long. If you listen at work or around children, beware that there are a few racy parts and cursing. (I got caught off guard a few times with people in and out of my office)
"Wonderful"
This book made me ready for the weekend to be over so that I could get back to work and finish it. There were several holes left that just seem to be asking for a sequel.
