Don't hate me for this, dear readers, but in this case I have to say - the Zac Efron movie was better than this book. I know, I know! It's almost sacrilege. But, sadly, true. I can promise it doesn't happen often.Charlie and Sam St. Cloud are the closest of brothers, and when Sam dies in a tragic ca...
Opening Line:"Charlie St. Cloud wasn't the best or brightest boy in Essex County, but he was surely the most promising" I read this a few years ago but after recently seeing the movie I was reminded of how much I’d liked this story and decided I had to revisit Charlie St Cloud and his little brother...
I liked it. It was thoughtful, flowed well, and reflected on the love between two brothers even after a horrific accident. I watched the movie first, and thought that both were well done.

The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud can only be described as a heart-warming piece about losing something you love and then finding yourself again. By day, Charlie is a groundskeeper for the cemetery where his brother Sam is buried. At night, he fulfills a promise he made on the other side to ...
Good, but incredibly dry. This book took me alot longer to get through than a book normally does. I also thought it was a bit "survivalist" in its' presentation.
I read this book a few years ago and I barely remember it all. I am sure at the time I read it, I would have given it 3 or 3.5 stars. It was a quick read, and it wasn't bad. But it hasn't stood any test of time and I wouldn't want to read it again.
