Merged review:
fascinating read, maybe 4.5 stars as i looked for an existential epiphany thing that i couldn't materialize, but couldn't find bc i'm not smart enough
i think a five star rating would be most fit for this series as a whole but nonetheless this was a great, gripping, and unique experience with the most beautiful illustrations i've ever seen; a great first read
a beautiful story about destiny; i could not connect to some of the themes in this book but overall it tells profound lessons about life.
fun read i like chicago and culture and minorities minorities are fun because i can relate them i like books because they can offer different perspectives and that was a great thing about this book i read this book in the ninth grade
relatively unmemorable book that left an unappetizing taste of young adult novels in my mouth (not sure what that analogy is)
read these all except drama in my younger and more vulnerable years except for drama
i remember some more than others but these have a special place in my heart, sisters especially. idk just great reads and i forgot to log them. sisters is actually the goat
kinda just trying to fill out my reading challenge... but this was pretty good and shoutout to Mr gufford,,,,,,,,,,, could use some more plot
read this some time during elementary school. i think it was required. it was alright i think, but my only core memory of it was reading it in the backseat of my dads little truck. it is now my little truck. this book is very peculiar. i remember being cold while reading it.
shoutout to mr gufford for opening our eyes to such an incredible novel, made only better with the insane literary analysis that he guided us through
and this was depressing
solid af amir is kinda annoying but very important incredible book historical fiction is nice i didn't like the grotesque scenes but what can you do
done and dusted pretty funny enjoyed very much high recommended for hl english ib oral candidates
+ i can't imagine having to memorize these lines
pretty good interesting quick book, very important topic take about in such an interesting way, i just wish there was more substance (80 pages) but i highly recommend to readers in mr guffords class 3.5
three point five, beautiful, easy, simple read with a beautiful setting and world yk, the overwhelming breast imagery may or may not be a plus or a minus
what a gem of a book - it's a super brief, subtle yet beautiful glimpse of a small corner of the world. i think Claire Keegan balances so many of the charming, simple details of a Christmastime Irish town (and its shortcomings) with such a pressing issue in a very impressive way. the plot remains incredibly simple but beautiful nonetheless. i see why some people adore it and why it doesn't strike others as very interesting, still i enjoyed it and i recommend reading and rereading this, especially to those that have visited ireland - it nicely captures the country and its culture
solid book with very practical and important takeaways; some case studies were a bit stretched perhaps but overall very fascinating book; we did it, we thought again
