Rating: 1 stars
Summary: this was an over rated book for simple minds
Review: this book was an enormous disappointment. It's lesson was more for a third grader than an adult. It's unrealistic, hapilly-ever-after ending left me bored to tears, and begging for the pages to be shorter. i regret ever reading this book, because of it's childish storyline, and predictability. I expected more.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Much Better than I expected
Review: I usually don't like the books that Oprah picks because the heroines tend to be victims, but this one is different. From the first chapter I pulled for this girl (and against her boyfriend), and she wasted little time feeling sorry for herself. Even though horrible things happen, she was not a victim, her friends wouldn't let her be. The theme of getting by with help from friends is uplifting, and the characters ring true.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Where The Heart Is
Review: This is the a wonderful book. I could read it over and over again. Novalee is such a beatiful person. I would give it 10 stars if I could. I recommend this book to everyone. It is a beautiful heartwarming story, that you don't want to miss.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Poignant and funny....
Review: Wonderful, heartwarming story of trust, abandonment, love and pain. Sweet little Novalee finds care and love in the simple people of small town Oklahoma. Great fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Unbelieveable
Review: I am definately not an advid reader, but this is the quickest book I have ever gotten through.

The way this book is told it is as though you are there in the pressence on the characters. As Navolee is left at Walmart by her thoughtless boyfriend, as she meets different characters that will help her through the tough times in the town, as she has her baby, as her mother once again portrays her by taking the only money she has to support herself, as she goes though the trials and tributes of raising a child, as she falls in love and almost realizes it too late.

This book would be an advid read for any type of reader, but I would most recomend this book for women, but I am sure that men would enjoy it too, but would not beable to relate to it as much.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Where the Heart Is
Review: I found this book overly simplistic. I kept waiting for an interesting plot twist or some deeper meaning, but I was never satisfied. I am at a loss to figure out what attracted Oprah and everyone else to this book. It's a quick read, perhaps a good "beach book," but I still don't know what all the fuss is about.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's absolutely wonderful...
Review: When I started reading it I just couldn't put it down! I love it. I could read it over and over again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Heart has been found
Review: Where the heart is was a wonderful book. I was able to just sit down and read no matter what my mood was. The book kept me interested and it never made me bored. I would recommend this book to anyone who just wants to curl up out by the pool and dive into a wonderful book. i loved Where the Heart is and can not wait to share it with all my friends.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Read the Book and THEN see the movie
Review: Read this book before you go and see the movie. The book contains so many layers and layers of Novalee and her friends that the movie was not able to even wrap its arms around. This is not the sort of book I read but I was inspired, not overwelmed, with the goodness of heart within the pages. Read. Enjoy.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Natured! and Excellent Written
Review: This book was a really good thrilling novel to read. It made me read and read and read and not put the book down until I read it cover to cover. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in a good book to read. It is about a person who is lives in WalMart and Gives birth to a baby girl named Americus in Walmart. Forney the librarian makes the best for her... to find out more, read the book!
