A Review of Fall Secrets
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
i thought that the book was really good. the author made it seem that she was talking about someone she knew, maybe herself as a child, or even someone that she knows. the reason that i gave it a 4 was because the pacing could have been slower, it just went by so fast. as soon as i started to read the book i couldn't put it down. i got so into the book that i felt like i was one of the characters in the book. i know that this is more realistic than unrealistic because everything that was going on a lot could relate to or had gone through something like that. i would recommend this book to anyone who is a teenager.
Booklist has no clue of urban and real life (Want the real)

To me(my opinion because I'm entitled to it) This book was very good and the fact that it has many things going in it is because that's how a real urban girl thinks. Boyd was coming from inside Jessie head and the world and how she sees it. Including her attractions and crushes to boys. In my opinon this book was a good CLEAN version of real urban life. Like it or not I really don't care.
Adults and teens will realy love this book.

This is a very good book. I bought it when I was in the sixth grade but put off reading it until now the summer before I start 9th grade. I think this book will help a lot of people with similar problems deal with them. It is a must read!!!!!

I loved this book. I have read it over 2 times I never do that. I am into acting and this book helped me think about acting at a different angle. I recomend this book to anyone. This will be a wonderful addition to your bookself. No matter who you are you are sure to identify with a charactar in this book and discover something wonderful about yourself. You learn so much from this you feel as if you read all the imformation in the world. When Jessie talks about her problems you almost cry but in a good way. To sum it up READ THIS BOOK!
