Summary: Great Book!!
Review: I think that the book Tangerine is very good. It has many elements of a good story that you would want in a book. There is suspense that kept me spell bound throughout the whole story and there is an extreme amount of excitment!! The characters are developed in a terrific way so that you can truly feel the joy and pain that Paul(the main character) feels throughout the story. The drama in the story seems so realistic and true and a good lesson is taught in the story. GET THIS BOOK!!!

Summary: Great book
Review: I really liked this book and would reccomend it to anyone who likes to read. I like the fact that it is written by journal entries for almost every day making it funner and easier to follow because you know when one day starts and another stops.

Summary: Tangerine by Edward Bloor
Review: When twelve-year-old Paul and his family move from Texas to Tangerine, Florida, it is a change of such magnitude that their lives will never be the same. Paul is legally blind due to a strange incident that occurred when he was five. However, that doesn't keep him from being an awesome soccer player and the one member of his family who truly sees what is going on.
The author raises a host of issues, including: vanishing farm communities, spreading suburbia, culture, class, handicaps, and family dysfunction. Best of all, he tucks them into a riveting story with characters a reader can't forget.
The haunting imagery creates such a foreboding atmosphere and this tension builds to the point that it's hard to put this book down. Will privileged Paul find a place for himself with his Latino classmates in their underfunded school and why is his relationship with his older, football star brother so strained? There is more going on in Tangerine than meets the eye.

Summary: Read It Once, Read it Again
Review: I thought the book was really good, once I actually got into it. One thing I really liked about it was how it was arranged by journal entries instead of chapters, making it easier to understand. I read it once for pleasure, now I'm re-reading it for a school project on my own volition! It's great!!!!

Summary: I See, I See Said Paul Fisher
Review: This was an amazing book. At first when I started it I wasn't really grasping the full idea of the book. By the time I got to the end I wanted there to be more to read. It was a very touching story. Paul was an amazing person in this book. He overcame every obsticle that was in front of him and didn't take no for an answer. I am very impressed with this book and would recommend it to everyone. You don't only have to be a sports lover to read this book.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: Tangerine is a very awesome book. When I first bought it for a school project, I thought it was gonna be a really stupid book that was just like all the rest of the books that the teachers assigned. This was the first book that I actually pictured what was going on in the book, inside my head. It was like a movie that lasted 3 weeks. It was an awesome book. If you're thinking of purchasing this book, it is certainly worth it.

Summary: I read this book in one sitting...
Review: No kidding, I started Tangerine at about 10:00 the other evening and didn't stop until 2 AM when I was finished. Not even a potty break! I don't know the first thing about football or soccer - I don't really even care for sports - but I devoured this book nonetheless. Excellent excellent excellent! I am ecstatic to discover that Bloor has written another novel and hopefully will be curled up with Crusader by this evening...

Summary: This is the best book ever
Review: My review on this book is depended on me and only me I really do not read very many books, but I had to read this one. I am a kid that likes action and violence, this book provided a tiny bit of both but I loved it anyway. One of the major reasons I liked this book is because it is one of those books that can't stop reading and you just want to read on and on and on. I really liked how each character had a totaly different personality not one of the characters are alike. Also I liked how Paul (the main character) acted tough about everything, and how he put up Erik (Paul's brother) and all his tortureing that he did to Paul. Well my over all review rating on this book is it is the best book ever. It is the best book I have ever read. The only part I disliked is the ending I would only give it two and a half stars. The problem is that it leaves you wondering about what happens, because it does not tell you. Well I would recommend this book to any ages. I hope my review helps you with your choice on a book.Enjoy! If you haven't read this book read it NOW!!!!

Thanks for reading my review

Summary: Tangerine: Juicy Reading
Review: Bloor does an outstanding job combining multiple plots and keeping the reader on the edge of his seat. The author masterfully pulls together the oddest events with some very common sense explanations. My absolutely favorite new idea for this decade is the Museum of the Boy Who Wouldn't Listen. Once again, American boyhood has found itself a new page in the written annals explaining suburban insanity.
