What a great book to read as we begin summer! We talked about all the plans we have!

I wouldn’t normally choose Berenstain Bears books

This book combines the history of the past with strange going ons of the present that inevitably intertwine the lives of a number of people from the same town. Every character has there secrets that somehow relate to the tragedies that have been occurring. This story has with secret keeping, deception, but its suspense element didn't pick up until the end and was seemingly short lived. For all of the build up the rest of the book provided (that was sometimes slow going), more was expected of the climax. Once the pieces fell together, it was too obvious as to who did it. This was not the best psychological thriller I've read, but it definitely wasn't the worst; it was just alright for me.

Swyler's writing surpasses her first book. This is a beautiful story, well told, poignant. The main protagonist is an eleven year old girl, Nedda, smart and ambitious. She desires to reach the stars. It is also a story of love, loss, and discovery. It's classified as fiction, yet the story opens in space on board a module traveling to a new planet. The science--chemistry and physics--are not overwhelming and are important to the story. This is a book I would read again.

Great for early readers.
