A wonderfully, historical take on the New York Subway System. Wasn't expecting to learn so much from the cover, as it portrayed a rather quick read, but instead it was packed with extremely informative paragraphs and unique perspectives on New York in the early 1900s that I definitely wasn't expecting. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone with an interest to learn more. :)

The story line was lovely, as the themes and main idea was well thought out. The style of writing was simply something I could not get used to. I actually had to download the audiobook off itunes in order to get through it. If it were re-written today in modern dialect, I feel like it would be easier to relate to. Overall, a nice read but extremely difficult to get through.

This book gave a very real interpretation of the epidemic that struck Philadelphia in 1793. It is incredibly factual and the story of Maddie is one that could be from any 15 year old from the time. I really liked this book, though it wasn't a favorite. There wasn't anything that was wrong with it, it just didn't click with me as well as I had hoped.

The book in entirety was a wonderful read, but the part that it focused on the Titanic, was very short and completely unrealistic. I know the jist of the book was focusing on the supernatural world, but it seemed as if the last 30 pages were rushed and a lot of detail was skipped...as well as quite a bit of information was unnecessary.

A chilling read...a bit quick. I read it in about an hour and a half. But overall, the whole plot has an intensity level of about 10 on a 10 point scale. Not recommended for anyone younger than 13. An incredible book though...touches on subjects not many authors like to include in their novels.

Though there are many mixed opinions about Huck Finn, I enjoyed this book very much and look forward to reading it again sometime in the future. :)

Unique plot, great read. A bit quick/easy to get through but it's a unique twist. Looking forward to the rest of the series!

A very interesting read. Had it not been assigned as summer reading, I never would have picked it up. Certain stories weren't my cup of tea, as there was a lot of scientific evidence behind certain things. Other stories however, were heartwarming and made you understand so much about people and the differences we all share. Definitely worth it!

Haunting. Makes you think in a way you wouldn't dream of.
