Homecoming

Rating:
Summary: Undoubtedly, one of the most boring books I have ever read.
Review: Reading Cynthia Voight's "Homecoming" is like watching a bad sitcom; it realizes that it's going nowhere and figures that if it throws in some new characters and situations from left field, it will somehow make it better. It starts out with the abandonment of a mother and the first 1,000 pages rattle on about the kids walking down the road, the next 50 million try to describe some bond between the kids and a college student, and when the book finally seems to end- it spends the last 6 trillion pages talking about Gracie's realtionship with her grandmother.

There really isn't anything to be learned from this book other than the fact that whenever the action gets slow, have the protagonist take off her clothes.

Summary: My favorite book ever read!
Review: I loved this story, it's the best book I've ever read. It was exciting and challenging and it held my attention through every page. It is long but definetly worth it.

Rating:
Summary: A good book that is worth reading again and again!
Review: Homecoming is a good book. There are four children in the Tillerman that are trying to get to Bridgeport with little money, no transportation, but with a lot of hope. The Tillerman children are realistic as characters. This is a book with a journey of disapointment, happiness, and most of all..., the Tillerman children's true HOMECOMING!!!

Summary: Good at begining and end but middle was boring
Review: I think this book was good....The first part at least....but the second part was a little bit boring because it was missing more plot. I am reading dicey's song now and i hope that it'll be more interesting than homecoming. P.S.-I wouldnt read Dicey's Song..but it's a class project.

Summary: slow at first, but then it really picks up
Review: this book was very slow in the beginning but i had to read it for a summer reading project, so i had no choice but to keep on reading it, and i am glad i did. it really picked in toward the second part and i didn't want to put it down. i could imagine everything dicey did, and where she was. this book is well worth reading!!!

Summary: A book on a mother who leaves her four children in a car.
Review: The book was not catchy in the beginning, but it soon began to pick up the pace on what it really was about. On this book I wasn't really interested and didn't get my attention.
