Criticism Appertaining To Books My Most Excellent Year

I'm in love!I'm trying to come up with a way this book could have been more perfectly tailored to my interests, and I'm failing miserably.It's a brilliant combination of Jaclyn Moriarty's banter, wacky characters, and epistolary flair, a fully appropriate level of loathing for all things Yankee (specifically Mr. Bucky Bleepin' Dent) to complement the Carlton Fisk adoration (brilliantly discussed in The Greatest Game, for those who are interested), an absolute adoration of Julie Andrews and all

My feelings are a bit mixed (yes, again!), as there were a lot of things I loved about this book: T.C.'s beautifully described memories of his mother, and the ways he dealt with them, and how he and Augie came to be 'brothers' were especially good - funny and very real. And of course the whole heart-string tugging storyline of Hucky tugged very effectively, even if it was easy to see how that one would end up from the beginning. I also liked the fact that everyone around Augie was so far beyond

I give the rating of two stars in its truest sense of "it's okay." This was a difficult novel to rate. I thought the writing was really good, and it was funny. But the main characters were all so incredible. They were all wealthy (or at least not poor), they all were really smart/got good grades, they were all really talented in different ways, they were all very attractive, etc. And I guess it is quite possible that three people like them would all be friends, so I don't know why I'm

I haven't quite officially finished this book but I can already see that it's going to be a happy ending. Nothing bad happens! It's that perfect department store window, mannequins placed just so. It's a half-hour sitcom with laugh track. It's those people down the street you kind of hate, the perfect family with the perfect lawn and the perfect future ahead of them (not the perfection that hides eeeevil secrets, I mean the annoyingly perfect).The book is a series of school essays (journal

5 Sickeningly Sweet Stars T.C., Alé and Augie are high-schoolers who have been assigned an English lesson of journaling their most excellent year. Follow along through these journal entries, chats, I.M.s, etc. as the three come of age and come into their own.Obviously, this one isnt ever going to win a Pulitzer, but judging the book for its genre it is absolutely worthy of 5 stars. I dont care if its completely cliché, the characters are too mature to be 14, the plot isnt realistic. So what?

I love this book. From the very first chapter, I knew I was going to have fun reading this and do so with relish. The story was a fantastic medley of different characters from different age groups and with different personalities and dreams. Key word being different. It was enjoyable because of its originality and the authors pleasant way of telling the story he included instant messages, e-mails exchanged, quotes, lists, etc. All of those things crafted lifelike, spontaneous and animated

Well the ride is over and Im feeling pretty sad. I hate turning the last page when the book is so damn good. That said I urge anyone looking for a fun trip into the minds of 3 teenage school kids (with a 6 year old and a few adults throwing their two cents), in to read this book.This is a story about love, life and family. It is told through the Diary entrys and various emails and IM messages that are typical of Steven Klugers style.TC, Augie, and Alejandra are the main talkers in this story.
