Not a good book for readers.

Not impressed with this book.  I don't think the format is e-book compatible. Too much paging back and forth.  This book would work better in print.

I wouldn't recommend.  A page fell out the minute I opened the book.  The language used is very difficult and hard to understand.  There is poor flow, repetition and honestly, it doesn't make much sense.

I see that more readers like this book than not. I read a lot of books, in many genres, and found this pretty awful. A lot of space is dedicated to character development, but it is not believable. It is also predictably romantic but not convincing. I don't recommend this book. However a free abstract of another book by Maggie Shayne appears to be better written, so I am going to give her another chance.

Honestly I couldn't get passed the first few pages. The amount of errors were so glaring it was intolerable for me to continue. One should be gripped by the story from the start. This was not gripping, interesting or well written. It is not one I would recommend for anyone to read.

The book is very difficult to read, with the prose not very interesting or engaging. Overly academic and not meant for non-historian. Had to skip many paragraphs and chapters.

I was dissapointed with this book. It explained things that did not need to be explained and I felt the author was writing for a audience that was uneducated and not well read.

I understand the author's desire to reach the masses but her attempts to make it readable by all fail miserably. I do not recommend this book unless your literary palate is very underdeveloped or that of a 14 yr old.

I couldn't stand it any longer. The slow and too detailed read. Got through part of chapter 10 and could not read any more. We get that her parents died and her feelings of how it affects her but come on, it is mentioned too many times that it just drove me crazy. I tried, I really did want to get to the drama of what I read from the description but had to give up.
Some readers like a slow and romantic read, I like a fast and romantic read with lots of drama. So, this book was not for me.

I have been listening to books for several years now and this reader reads like they are in a speed reading contest. Not at all like people actually speak it gave me a headache in could not get through one chapter.

I really didn't like the book. To me it was very boring, and I had to force myself to read as far as i did. I would look elsewhere.

Not a good book for the casual reader. Cannot go 2 sentences without footnotes....very annoying if you just wanted to read MP describe his travels.

i personally wasn't a fan of the book because i was never into the fantasy type genre to begin with. reasons why i didn't enjoy reading this book was because it was filled with boring text and long wait for anything interesting to happen. Confusing grammar being used throughout the book also. i can see why so many people like it and i understand but its just not my preference.

I read Push and, while the content was somewhat disturbing, it was an interesting book. I'm an extremely fast reader (can read a "good" book in 3 days). It's been almost 3 weeks and I'm just on page 190 of The Kid. Last weekend I took a break from it and read (& finished) another book. I tried to like this book, but I just can't read another page of it. The main character is a very "sick" boy, mentally. His thoughts were just one run on sentence that didn't make any sense. It would take a special kind of person to be able to read and enjoy this book. Unfortunately, I'm not one of those people. I'm just glad I didn't buy it. It is going back to the library today.

The style of this author's made the book not a good read for me.  It was too much info at times and not enough at other times.

I bought this book discounted, and am still upset with the amount of money I spent on it. Simply put, This book was not good. The characters were not realistic or developed at all. The story line was contrite, and juvenile. You would think with two authors, the twist and turns in the book would be more interesting, but it seemed to make the book more confusing and unreal. If these ladies wanted to set a standard in the literary world, they sadly missed their mark. I don't recommend this book at all.

I did not like the book.  I feel the author uses unnecessary metaphors and descriptions which makes the flow of language tedious. I also did not like the passages about radios. The book is taking too long for the main characters to meet.

I don't like it. The language used is just too boring to read. All I'm saying is, it doesn't make up to my list of top 10 books.
