Hi, I’m Melissa, I am reading this book currently for school (5th grade). I’m reading this book right now for my Novel Group at school. So far, it is a wonderful book! I would love to read her other books too! I sometimes think that this book is kind of boring, but when I have to keep reading it for my assigments, I jump back in to it and won’t put it down! This book is a beauty in disguise! I would never had picked up this book if I saw it at a book store. My teacher and the other teachers, have given me and the other kids in my Novel Group an amazing experience. BTW, your review for the book is amazing, you get it all in there without letting big information go, like some things I wont say.

I was won over by Anderson's Wintergirls and really must read more her work. I'll put this on the list with Speak and others. .-= Beth F´s last blog ..Thursday Tea: The Solitude of Prime Numbers by Paolo Giordano =-.

I've only read one of Laurie Halse Anderson's book so far (Fever 1793) this was already the next of hers that I planned to read. Thanks for such an interesting review. It really makes me want to read it that much sooner. .-= SuziQoregon´s last blog ..Wordless Wednesday #32 =-.

I have this on audio to listen to someday. I loved Wintergirls and am anxious to read more by her.

Considering that politicians and other people are always yammering about the Founding Fathers, it is strange that there's not a lot of novels set during that era. Maybe you've found a new time period to be passionate about! .-= heidenkind´s last blog ..Author Fan Letter Blog Crawl =-.

I’m planning on reading this one as part of my aim to read all of the Carnegie shortlist before the winner is announced Really looking forward to it now as well.

I remember wanting to read this book really badly when it came out, but then I forgot about it. The recent Carnegie nomination was a reminder – as was your review! It sounds like something I’ll love.

Like you, I prefer a different era (mine is the thirties), but I’ve been experiencing a growing interest in the Revolution. Such a cast of characters! And haunted by slavery.

Just that they’re set in the same place – the storytelling is totally different! I couldn’t think of any other book I’d read set there specifically.
