Peace like a River

I just finished this book last night. It was 9 when I started and I had 100 pages to go. I didn't, no couldn't put it down till the story was told. I loved this book. From the first chapter to the end I just connected with the characters. I was a little sad that a 10 year old girl had better vocab and could put anything I write to shame but enjoyed every word of it. As I was reading I tabbed off a couple of my favorite parts and wanted to write them in here but I wasn't sure if that was ok or not? Should I just paraphrase my favorite parts or is quoting them ok?

If you haven't read the book stop reading this now!







At the last chapter I was pissed. Really I was mad. I couldn't figure out where the heck he was taking me..I mean he ever wrote "hang in there with me for a second" while he went off into another world. I wanted to know what happened now! I didn't want to wait any longer to find out what had happened. After I had finished reading the book I closed it and thought about the book. The chapter I couldn't stand to read is the chapter that stood out most in my head. He painted such a pretty picture, I was seeing Robbin Williams running across his field in the movie What Dreams May Come.

Overall I would recommend it to anyone and everyone who loves good fiction.

If I find its ok to put up quotes ill to that later tonight.
