Rating:  Summary: You Just Couldn't Put This Book Down Review: Tangerine is a book that you couldn't put down. You just wanted to keep on reading. It was a book that kept you thinking about what would you do if you were in his/her shoes. The characters in the book were constructed very well. Paul was the main character, he was a courious, suspicious person who was the only person that could see right through Erik(his brother who sprayed spray-paint in his eyes and made him have terrible vision) and could see the bad about him. The only thing that could of been better about the book was its ending. It didn't answer all of the questions the reader wanted to know. Besides that the book was good and I recomend it to all teens. Even adults will enjoy it.
Rating:  Summary: Katie's Review on Tangerine Review: This book was very interesting. I liked this Book because something was always happening.this book is a Happy and sad book. I Reccomend this book to anyone who likes a book that never gets boring.
Rating:  Summary: exciting and surprising Review: Tangerine is a very surprising book! It has many parts were you think you would want to be there. Paul has big glasses and a brother that needed to stop getting into trouble before it was too late for him and he got a little out of control just like what happened in the story. Paul is a kid that i wouldnt want to hang around with becuase he has big glasses and finds his computer his best friend. Thats pretty sad and his brother is popular so i can understand why erik doesnt want to hang out with him. At the end of the story Paul gets Erik back for the bad things that happened to him that were his fault, which i found the best part of the story plus Paul doesnt have the best of luck either in the end of the story though. Good book overall and I hope other people like it too!

Rating:  Summary: Tangerine Review: I think that the book Tangerine was a pretty good book. Ifinished before everyone in the class. Its about Paul who is trying tofind out about his brother Erik. In, the mean time weird things are happening, like stealing things from bug infested houses that no one has acsess to. Paul has a few leads but nothing really good. Will he find out in time?
Rating:  Summary: Amesome Book Review: The book Tangering was a very good book.The characters were very developed and all had good and bad things about each one. The best part was when Paul finally found out how his eyes got damaged. I would recomend this book to anyone who reads because it is such a great book. Thats why I rated it with 4 stars.
Rating:  Summary: The best book for kids. Review: I think that this book is a real exciting book. It starts to get very interesting and makes you want to reead more. The ending is what you would kinda exspect to happen. It is very adventurest and has a big irony.
Rating:  Summary: Hurray for the underdog! Review: In the beginning Tangerine seems as Paul Fisher is going to be the poor, lowly nerd his whole life. Upon getting his second chance after they move to the mysterious Tangerine, Florida, things change and what has always seemed unclear (this is a double meaning because Paul wears thick glasses) becomes amazingly clear. Ironically, Erik Fisher, the person appearing to be the hero at first, turns out to be the true underdog and Paul is victorious as the seer of the town's and his family's true colors.
Rating:  Summary: A family circus with a twist. Review: Tangerine is the new town that Paul's family is moving to. On the surface, it looks like many other towns, but its surface is a false front. Under the neat new turf and posh condominium communities is a deep layer of white sand, and under the sand is the old town of Tangerine - once a green and fruitful center of citrus production. The trees have been burnt and plowed under, but the old town never really has gone away. Water still flows where it used to, lightning still strikes the spots where the highest trees once stood, and the burning trees that were plowed into the muck burn on - under the white sand.Paul's family is much like Tangerine. On the surface, the two boys, Paul and his brother Eric, are star athletes. Dad is the town's new civil engineer. Mom is leading the new Homeowners' Association within weeks of moving in. All very upper middle class, civic-minded, and successful. But a very ugly truth lurks beneath. They all know it to some degree or another. How long before it emerges from under the false front? This is a well-written tale of a boy's struggle to face his fears, and the ugly parental mistakes that can change the face of a family. However, I wouldn't give it to any kid to read without some discussion.
Rating:  Summary: Soccer, Friendship and a Great story all in one! Review: Tangerine was the best book I have ever read. It was kind of weird but I could really relate (lol). Paul was in the footsteps of his older brother and it really showed me how my brother must feel when he is dragged to all my soccer games. This was a really intresting book for anyone who is into soccer. The way the author writes it is amazing too. He is very descriptive and tells you a lot about each character. This was probably the only book that I have wanted to read instead of watch TV. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
