It made me think and keep thinking even when I finished the book. It was a good story and see it from a child's point of view of life in a 11" x 11" size room. Its a poignant story and will remind you of people who were abducted in the past or present.

I would recommend it and see what you think. The characters are so real. It can take a while to get through the 1st 30 pages, but it grabs you afterwards.

I think I'm going to like it. I really love books where thet have a child as the main character.

I've been thinking of getting it myself. Maybe we should add this one as a possible group read?

I'm up for that x

I am looking for that book for awhile now, never being sure whether to buy or not. I read some very good reviews as well as some miserable once. A group read would definitely make me go for it :)

You can count me in too! Right now we are picking our reads for the next two months. Do we want to do it as a side read or just nominate for the next go around?

6. Cross Fire - James Patterson

I just love James Patterson! It amazes me how he just keeps pushing out books and the quality doesn't seem to suffer.

Well I have already a lot to read for Feb thanks to all the challenges I couldn't have resisted. But if you say a side read is what you want, I will go for it, I am ready for a few sleepless nites if the book is worth it. :)

I always pick reading over sleeping or watching tv...lol
