For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleI absolutely loved this book. It has been sitting on my shelf for a while now, because I have been caught up reading library books days before they are due. I finally got around to reading it and I loved every page. The story sucked me in right away. I...
Mini-review here: Slow, clunky beginning eventually became a fun book to read. Alas, it took half the book to get there and I'm not sure how many readers will have the patience to wait until the book actually gets interesting.Even I was tempted to stop during the first chapter (which is really quite...
First off I was annoyed the childs name was the same as the town. I don't know why it bothered me so much but it did. The story had great potential but fell flat. Everything seemed so nonchalant and vague at times. This first book should have been the set up to the worlds in the cupboards and gave y...
Book 1 in the '100 Cupboards Trilogy': This is another story that eventually leads to 'we aren't in Kansas anymore'! It starts off slow, but midway through the book, it picks up steam and never slacks. There are elements of the 2006 movie, 'The Lake House' and of the books: 'Indian In The Cupboard',...
I'm not sure. I felt it had a good premise...but it didn't do anything for me. I felt parts of was fantastic...such as the creepy "thing" that was trying to get Henry and Henrietta...and the "thing" that had actually caused Henry to even take notice to find the 100 cupboards...but other than that it...
First off: ages 9-12? The writing is way to complicated and the book is too gory for this age group . . .I'm usually a sucker for beautiful, lyrical writing. But sometimes, I feel like authors try too hard to attain this. N.D. Wilson writes as though he's trying to make every sentence a masterpie...
I thought this story was okay. I read a lot of children's book and I liked the storyline but I thought the story jumped around a lot. I did not like Henry's reaction when he was told about his parents, one sentence about his reaction did not seem like good enough for me. I can only hope that the se...
mp3 workaday. This is brilliant fun, and upon rummaging around the interwebz I see it there is a film offer in the pipeline. What a good film this would make.Later - This loses a star:Skips along at such a pace, visiting many places and characters, that I feel cheated about details. I am not getting...
The premise of this book is fascinating: A young boy who has a hard time finding his place in life goes to live with his aunt and uncle, and stays in a room that has 100 cupboards on the wall. With the manipulation of a couple of dials, the cupboards will take him to a variety of different worlds, ...
