review 1: Refreshing, to say the least. It was a bit difficult to get used to the back and forth between characters and eras, but once I got used to it I was in for a delightful story. The use of a "narrator" at key points of the story really helped to give the book the structure needed to pull everything together. And the discussion questions at the end would make for a good book to be used in a small reading circle.
review 2: This is such a unique coming of age novel with an interesting plot and fun voice--I really enjoyed it. The discussion questions at the end of the book are thought-provoking and would initiate interesting conversations. I did feel like the christian aspect of the novel is a little watered down. It spoke about God and spirituality more than it did ... moreJesus and a relationship with our Savior, but I still liked the book. It was an easy read with some great themes. I liked the historical aspect and the interconnectedness of all the characters. I also liked the three different points of view: Kati, Josh, and Angelo. Although, a couple of times I found myself confused about who's story I was reading. Overall, I give this novel 3 1/2 to 4 stars and I would recommend it to others. less
