i read the poisonwood bible a while ago, but it was one of the best books ive ever read...it was good because all the characters evoked different emotions, and the plot was good, but the book also had some meaning...
has anyone read Girl With a Pearl Earring...it was excellent...the plot was good, and there were some of the best descriptions i've ever read...the writing was just beautiful
and now for a book i hated...The Lakehouse...i really didn't like it...the plot was preposterous, and it just got worse...and there were some inconsistencies...just dont read it
yup, thats all for now, but i still have all my summer reading to do...has anyone read The Emperor of Ocean Park? that looks good...

It's narrated by this girl, Morgan, who has this best friend, Jimmy, who she's been best friends with since like birth. He's a theater dancer and she's taking improv classes at Second City (in Chicago). Anyways... he gets killed by a drunk driver and most of the book is about Morgan's struggle to move on and live her life without her best friend. It's really sad but touching and I first read it about 5 years ago. LoL

This is a review from SOPHIE KINSELLA! The creator of BECKY! okay:
"Such a sharp, funny, poignant heroine, with an inner world we can all relate to. I loved it." -Sophie Kinsella
Please read this series! They reallly are great. (i'm on the 2nd one now!)
