This was a very good book. It was very unpredictable and constantly left you on the edge of your seat.

Amal’s sister is helping her catch up on school work at home by teaching Amal what she learns at school while Amal is at home taking care of her mother and the house.

tyhis book was exciting

A fascinating read about social science. I really enjoyed reading the adventures of this man into a world so different from his and my own; this book really opened my mind to communities so different than what I've lived in.

This was an incredibly powerful and emotional book that captivated me with its storytelling and historical detail. I enjoyed the realistic way in which Alvarez depicts the Mirabal sisters -- the writing felt deeply personal. I would recommend this to anyone, especially if you like historical fiction.

very humerous book.

It was a really good read. You get to experience the main character develop and learn about her life through the first-person point of view.

A portrait artist lives in the house of a famous retired elderly painter, after his divorce and year on the road. In this long, winding book, he meets various strange people and things. He learns a lot about life and death, and uncovers many secrets about art and family. I did not like this book because women and girls were portrayed in a very demeaning and insensitive way. The author came off as misogynistic and lazy, this wasn't his best work at all.

I thought this book was very interesting. It is about a plump kid named Lewis. When his parents died, Lewis went to live with his uncle Jonathan. After living with his uncle for a week, Lewis found that his uncle and his uncle's neighbor are both magicians. He finds out that clock is ticking in the walls of the house. After that the story get's very exciting and I would definitely recommend the book to everyone that enjoys adventures and action!

Good overall plot but the ending is a bit unsatisfying and vague.
