Summary: It was one of the best novels I've ever read.
Review: It was one of the best books i've ever read, and i recommend it to anyone that likes Hemingway, and also to people who have never read any of his other writings. I feel that it captured the mood ,personality, and circumstances of alot of the soldiers of that war and time period.

Summary: Hemingway poignantly balances romance and war - F2A is great
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed Hemingway's terse, concise style, accurately potraying the emotional standoffishness between Frederic and Catherine. Some of the images he created with so few words will stay with me forever, such as the ants burning on the log. Terrific.

Rating:
Summary: It was simply written but had a good plot.
Review: The language was very easy to understand and the reader wanted to finish the book but I got very tired of "Cat" because she was very well winey. I did not like her character. I enjoyed the war scenes and what it was like for a single person during WWI. All in all I had no problems at all reading this book.

Rating:
Summary: A great WWI saga. Excellent descriptions.
Review: This is an excellent book. Frederick Henry struggles against war and its consumption of everyone and everything. Takes look into religion in war times. Hemingway looks into setting in great detail making you feel like you were there. Definately a book to read by in my opinion the greatest of American authors!

Summary: The Best of Hemingway!!
Review: This book, in my opinion is the best work of Ernest Hemingway. It is about an American ambulance driver on the Italian front and his love for a British nurse. One reason I liked this book so much is because Hemingway creates pictures in your mind of "the front" with the words he uses so it feels like you are there taking part in the sotry. He is like a painter, painting pictures in your mind as if you are watching what is happening. I would highly recommend this to people who like romance stories and World War I history. My favorite part is the German attack on Caporetto, it was descriptive and suspenseful. It is a classic that you shouldn't miss out on.

Summary: A Farewell to Arms is one of the best books I have ever read
Review: I found A Farewell to Arms to be an excellent book. It started out very boring but after the first 10-15 chapters it became very interesting and hard to put down. Ernest Hemmingway did an excellent job putting himself into the book through Frederick Henry. This was the first novel by Hemmingway that I read, and I plan on reading the rest of his novels.

Rating:
Summary: Possibly the best novel ever written.
Review: This is one of, if not the greatest novel written in the 20th century. Hemingway makes every step unpredictable and even exciting. This book has many twists and turns that shocked me. Every book has its flaws though. I am repulsed by the World Wars; contrary to many of my friends and families beliefs. This is the only major flaw in this novel, in my opinion. I would suggest that every household in America should have a copy on their bookshelves.
