Rating: Summary: A Little Different Review: This is a good story with a good mystery. You don't really know what to think, as the answer is never fully revealed. I am very much a happy ending person and I wish this would have ended more happily. I enjoyed the book, but not the way the author confusingly added racialism. Caroline Cooney is one of my favorite authors, and I will continue to read her books, but this is not one of her better books.
Rating: Summary: My Reveiw Review: this book was very good,i liked it alot.It made for good historical fiction reading.I think it is a good book but not appropreate for 5th grade and under.It tells about murder and robberys, fires and shootings.It is not completely bloody it also tells about the every day life of a teen, friendships,cruches,ect...ect..
Rating: Summary: Strong Lesson to Learn Review: I personally found that "Burning Up" was not the strongest of Caroline Cooney's books. She is a wonderful writer and I love reading anything she has written. The story did catch my interest slowly and the climax of the book was toward the middle. Caroline Cooney wrote the truth about a "hush hush issue" which brought closure to many of my wonders. It was overall a good book but I wish that the ending was happier.
Rating: Summary: Burning Up~I loved it! Review: Macey is doing a history project and decides to do it on an old arson that happened near her grandparents house. When she gets in her own fire she becomes more determined to find out about the arson. She finds love in a boy named Austin. He helps her but in the end solving the mystery doesn't exactly help her relationship with her family but it helps her see her "TRUE COLORS"
Rating: Summary: Burning Up with curiosity Review: I loved this book! Like most books I couldn't put it down until finished. I think people who don't mind being curious and shaken at the end, who can put up with the 'boring parts' of this book should go for it. It's about a girl who is trying to find facts about an old barn that burned down once long ago with her new love, Austin. I give this book a thumbs up!
Rating: Summary: Needs a good ending Review: It was a pretty good book over all. Macy had very strong thoughts about who burned down the house. The ending was a little dissapointing though. A pretty good mystery but not enough clues. I give it three stars.
Rating: Summary: This was A OK Book!! Review: This Book was pretty good!! It's about a girl named Macy who digs up a forgotton secret of her peacful town.This book is really good but it tends to drone on and on. Nothing really big happens except for in the begining of the book. I suggest you read it if you like boring books. Read it and see for yourself!
Rating: Summary: Very Touching. Review: I had only read one of Caroline Cooney's books(the face on the milk carton)but I loved this one. I thought it was a GREAT mystery and a terrific plot, though the ending was a bit shaking. If you read this book and enjoyed it you would also like Sharon Creeches writing.
Rating: Summary: Needs a sequal Review: I thought this book was wonderful! It was full of mystery, and I was always waiting for my next chance to read it- the ending is ok- the book difinitely needs a sequal!
Rating: Summary: Very Interesting Review: I really enjoyed this book because I'm a big Caroline B. Cooney fan. Just like "Wanted","A Face on a Milk Carton" and all her other mysterys, this book keeps you on the edge of your seat.It is kind of slow at first but you will be dying to know who did it by the end. I recommend this book to anyone who wants a easy read with great mystery!
