I really enjoyed this book. The characters are well formed and by the middle of the book you feel that you know them personally. The story is enlightening and taught me things about that time period I didn't know. A good story. I had trouble putting the book down.

I enjoyed this book. The story was deep and flowed well. I could really picture the characters and identify with them during the story. I recommend it.

The story is good. Tragic but hopeful. But this book is extremely wordy! It is filled with sentences that strech on for a paragraph filled with 15 to 20 adjectives. Big on name/place dropping. After a while you learn to skim or skip them. This would have been a much better book had it been edited down to 400 pages instead of 800. The story some times got lost in all the needless words. I would only recommend this book to someone from the south (story is based in suburb of Atlanta) or someone who loves this author.

Thought provoking. It's a good story and makes you think. A little hard to read as it's narrated by a 5 yr old. But I enjoyed it and would recommend it.

I loved this story! I felt like I new the characters personally, the story flowed well and the description of the dogs antics are spot on! I have a big black dog and was reminded of those puppy days.
