review 1: This book was interesting, but it didn't keep me hooked. I was also skeptical of the story about Mary (I am Christian and some of it doesn't add to what I know)...don't attack me please! I'm just putting my honest opinion out here.I did like Mister, I just wasn't sure of her choices all the time and I didn't love her, which made the story that much harder to get through. I think this could've been written better...maybe with a more complicated plot to make it more interesting?It wasn't that good.
review 2: Mary Rudine, nicknamed Mister because of her initials, has always been a “good girl.” She attends church every Sunday, sings in the choir, and does well in school. When she meets Trey the feelings she has for him throw her for a loop and she forgets the... more promise she made to God to save herself for marriage. She thinks she loves Trey and has sex with him. After she ends up pregnant, he abandons her. Feeling all alone, she begins to question whether God still loves her. She discovers a book of poetry about the Virgin Mary which helps her to truly discover the depth of God’s love. This quick and easy read is a novel written in verse and is sure to be inspirational to its intended audience. less
