Summary: A heart-clenching and poignant novel. Cherished and reread.
Review: I first read Two Moons in August when I was in grade school. This year I will be a Senior in high school and I know I have read this book at least 25 times. Nothing has ever touched me as deeply. Brook's presents her characters and situations with such bittersweetness and honesty that the reader feels their sorrow and their awkwardness. They experience the heat of a Canadian summer, the eccentricity of the 1950's, the loss of a mother, the love/hate relationship of sisterhood, and the restlessness of first love. The best part is that they experience all of this through a lurid and funny first person narative that hovers between reality and the fanciful illusions of ourselves that we all house inside. Two Moons in August has not received the attention it deserves. As a reader I came away feeling sane and human. There is no one who has a heart or a soul that would not feel the same after reading this original and tender novel.

Summary: Really easy to relate to!!!
Review: I loved the book. It was really something I could relate to. I could put myself in Sidonie's place and feels what she felt. Her stress, emotions and problems were really common in the teenage years, so i knew how she felt. She was dealing with her mother's death and there was alot of details that made it interesting. It was written in a way that I could understand, it wasn't too complicated. And it was also written in a way that I could feel like I was there. It doesn't have a boring place in the book and there's always a cliff-hanger everywhere. I think it was a wonderful book!!!

Summary: One of the Best I've read!
Review: I went on a mission to find a really and I mean really good book. When I found "Two Moons in August", I was so happy. You just can't stop reading! The story flows at a good pace;and just when you think you're going to yawn, a touch of humour comes in. Its warm summery setting is simply beautiful! Her thoughts about her life, her recently dead mother; every word was put together perfectly. I loved it so much, I decided that I would buy it here, at Amazon.com.

Summary: One of the best books i've read
Review: This book rocks! I've read this books a million times and it's still as good as the first time i've read it. This book is about family relationships, and love. It's a really good book for mature 12 year olds and up. It's a story about a girl who becomes interested in the boy across the street. Read it and find out what happens.

Summary: An excellent book that portrays emotions deeply.
Review: This book was excellent. It made the emotions of the main character seem so realistic and captured every moment so perfectly. The summer love is so beautiful and you will never think of love the same way again after you read this book. It made me laugh and cry and I read it so fast that I couldn't believe it!! I think this is the best book I've ever read and I would enjoy seeing another sequel to the book soon!! This book was definately a 10. It had everything from the best descriptive writing to realistic emotions!! I loved it!!
