Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt

   I liked this book.  The character descriptions were good. The scenery depiction was excellent. The toad was cool. Yeah, this is a good book. The ending was sad but it made sense which is becoming more and more important to me *cough cough, Messenger, cough*. It wasn't as predictable as it could have been but I did catch the foreshadow. Maybe I'll add more later.
   Bad stuff: I need to stop reading books meant for children. They end too soon. This is the third time in a week I've read a book and thought; 'That probably could have been drawn out for about ten more chapters.' Basically if you can sum up the entire plot on the back cover it's too short. You know, I have a lot more fun writing about books I didn't like.
   Rating: Great.
   Read again? Maybe.
   Should you read? Yes.
