Title: Couldn't put it down!
Review: After devouring this book in one sitting, I remember again why I enjoy reading. No wonder M. Night Shyamalan "borrowed" this idea! It's a fantastic idea! I agree the ending goes a little to pieces, but for a FIRST book, it's totally enjoyable and very very well written. Total page-turner I would recommend to children and adults alike (I am 29 and reading about Jessie's harrowing escape made me as excited as a kid would be!)Haddix's descriptions aren't hackneyed or played-down for the younger set. All can enjoy this great book. :)
