Summary: Not just for teens!
Review: I'm a pastor and this book ministered to ME. I am buying this book for all my Confirmation students this year. I just gave it to my 14-year-old son for his b-day yesterday and I will insist he read it. Rachel's insights are remarkable and apply to anyone who has ever been a teenager. Her thoughts and struggles, hopes and fears took me back to my high school days and reminded me of some things I had written as a journal of sorts back then. I realize I still struggle with many of the same issues. I'm still growing up, I guess. Aren't we all?

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: dueling martyrs!
Review: Ok -- so which one of the Columbine kidz was the one who went ga-ga for God just before the light flashed? There are two competing claims, and I'm inclined to think it was Rachel. Too bad they couldn't have stuck around for a good old-fashioned hair-pulling competition but that's the way life works sometimes. Bummer.



Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Good Book
Review: This is a very intresting book that gives you glimpses into what Rachel Scott was thinking and feeling and how she delt with them by her faith in God.

However, it does bother me that this book is an adaptation of Rachel's journals and that the reader may not be getting the whole picture(and this only adds to my personal skepticism of some things surrounding her death and why she died) and this is why I gave the book 4 stars.

Overall, this is a very good book and I recommend it to anyone who wants to know what Rachel Scott was thinking and feeling.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I found myself forgetting that Rachel hadn't written it
Review: This was an interesting book. I found myself many times forgetting that it was not, in fact, written by Rachel. The Journals of Rachel Scott provided a lot of insight to Rachel's world before she died. Though I may have enjoyed it more if it was the actual journal, it was definitley well written and probably could not have been done any better.
