Very interesting and a nice short quick read. A lot of miraculous stories, for anyone who loves animals or has an interest in medical care.

Pretty awesome, since I went to school with a few of the playwrights! It was nice because you can see people's different personalities coming out. I even copied down some cool qoutes from this book. Gerat for anyone who is interested in plays, and new playwrights.

Definetly an interesting read, and a quick one at that, too. The ending is anti-climatic to me, though..but all in all, the book as a who9le was an interesting journey :)

Like I said, mainly just for teeny bopperers who love Smallville so much they actually decide to *read* something *gasp*.

I really enjoyed the African culture that was mixed in with the book. Even though very much in the future, the book showed that culture remains. I liked how she describes her characters, too.

Hah..how did this *ever* get on the bestsellers?? Paolini spent so much time describing details we don't care about, while the interesting stuff was swept quickly and abruptly away. Also, Paolini should be sued for eerie similarities to Tolkien. As if anyone could be as great as him!

The first half was pretty good, but it went downhill from there. Anyone else see the similarities to Tolkien? It's as if he copied from him. Not cool! It was a quick and enjoyable read, though, if you've never read Tolkien.

Eh, what can you say about these books. Only written because a TV series is out there. They aren't bad or good..just something to add onto a fan's do to list if they like Smallville.

A girl in search of dreams meets up with some of the most interesting characters you'll ever want to imagine. She proves to them that you can achieve dreams. I loved the characters in the book, their eccentricites, and their personalities. A really cute book for kids to read, too!

Cute, but not enough story..it gets old reading about her mundane life. The ironic part, though, is thatshe thinks she's ISN'T mundane. Hah.
