Blowfish Live in the Sea

Summary: A Beautifully Written Story
Review: Blowfish Live in the Sea is definitely one of the best books that I have ever read. Paula Fox does such a good job of describing the characters that you think that you completely know them by the time you are through. I could not put this book down. The setting and atmosphere seemed so real that I could not help but wallow in the problems of each of the melancholy characters for a while. It also offers a very real picture of what life was like back in the seventies (sixties?) for a teenage girl and her older step-brother. This book is very rare and hard-to-find, so if you can get your hands on it, go ahead and read! The mystery of the strange blowfish will haunt you forever!! (Excellent ending, I might add.)

GO READ BLOWFISH LIVE IN THE SEA.

Summary: Blowfish Live in the Sea
Review: Blowfish Live in the Sea was not especially one of the greater books that Paula Fox has written. Although descriptive and interesting, the book didn't really go anywhere... there was a simple plot: Ben's dad was a drunk, but he was still Ben's father. So, Carrie and Ben went all the way to Boston to meet a drunk liar... yet, somehow, they all enjoyed themselves.
