At first I was worried that Alice's tale would be just another teen angst story, but written in captivating verse, Lisa Schroeder's words caught my attention right away. Alice Andreeson, a normal girl with normal problems, felt amazingly real to me. Dealing with her father starting a new marriage after her mothers death, we saw Alice her in her happy moments and sad moments. I was impressed that we even saw her traveling through the very same daydreams I have as she deals with her friend'sOh how I love Lisa Schoeder's writing style. She just kept it small yet so full of emotions. Reading in verses excites me especially when it comes to her books. And this is a second book that I've read from her and honestly, it never disappoints me.Reading her works is like reading a diary where you get to see real and raw feelings that doesn't sound exasperating at all. Alice thinks she is left alone. Her mother died, her father remarried and the bad news is he's having a baby. All what's left
Alright, I admit that at the beginning I wasn't all that excited about reading this. It's in poem form and I don't usually understand poems. People in poems are usually really depressed, which in turn makes me depressed or totally confused. I found this book surprisingly easy to read though. It's strange at first because the sentences sound kinda choppy, but you adapt pretty quickly and the words start to flow much better.Quick Overview: Alice has lost her mother to cancer and has to deal with a
I really, really, truly loved this book!The story was great, amazing! The events throught out the book were so memorable and beautifully written. Man, it was so beautiful. Let's move on now.When you read this book(if your a girl), you have to love Blaze. The way he is described and the way the author makes him act, is so whats the word... AMAZING! Man, Blaze is like the perfect boyfriend. If he were real, I would totally go out with him. Int he book, he is described as hot, sensitive and is an
Book title: Far from YouPersonal Response:I honestly thought this book was going to be a long shot. The book was poetry, and I dont normally read poetry. This is the first poetry book I've read and I think it was a really good start to get me into the genre. Summary: The book Far from You by Lisa Schroeder is about a teen named Alice (Ali for short). It first starts out in a perspective to make you think Ali is very alone in the world from what has happened to her. First, her mother passes away,
This is now one of my favorite books that I have ever read. It is about a girl with a new step-Mom and step-sister. And one day something bad happens and they come together as a family. At the end of the book on if the things she says is its no use going back to yesterday because I was a different person then and I can relate to that because of something else that makes her feel that way. It looks like a long book but really it isnt. It is poetry but really short. I STRONGLY recommend this book
