This takes place towards the end of WWII in a small town in
the south. The characters are alive almost and it easy to feel
for them. Read it if you like a love story, WWII, or just a good,
entertaining story. Cristina R.

The book was very good. It was exciting, yet sad. I didn't
like how Patty was treated. Tara L.

Good book with good supporting characters and large quantities
of swimming imagery. The only problem was the main character who
was totally pathetic. Michelle G.

A great book, but very sad. It's about a Jewish girl who has
no friends except one--an escaped German soldier. I loved it!

I really liked this book and thought it was a wonderful love
story. I sympathize with the main character for she gets treated
horribly and she get beaten. I would recommend it to girls more
than guys. Swimming imagery is strong. Molly M.
