Overall I think the book was good and I would recommend it to a friend because I found the book very intense especially at the end it got very intense when Sam made his promposal to Brooke it got very intense because the whole book was leading up to that certain moment and reading got really intense. But one thing I think was really bad was the ending I think the end could have been better. I think Eric Walters should have left the book on a cliff hanger and should have made a sequel to the book because if he did that then I would read the sequel. If I was Eric Walters I would make a whole series of these kind of book because I overall enjoyed the book and would prefer if he made another book or two I think he could make a lot of money and get a lot of new readers and inspire them to make

    Although the story didn't involve as much action as an usual murder mystery, the characters were quite adorable, not only because of the fact that they were sheep, but because of their quirky, humorous personalities. The plot did go a little bit slow, and there were interludes between clues, but when the plot developed, it built up suspense and excitement. The main characters were fully developed, and each have their own strengths and weaknesses. There were some parts that gave me a laugh, and I quite enjoyed the simplicity of the novel. I didn't feel like the ending was rushed, unlike other novels where the author seems to just get to the resolution as soon as possible.…

    Christianity has always been a little confusing for me and how many different types of Christians that there are. I am a newer Christian and I am filled with questions on a daily basis, full of doubt, full of confusion, and sometimes other Christians throw me off with their closed minds and their judgements and smugness. Daniel Taylor asks the question in his book, The Myth of Certainty: The Reflective Christian and The Risk of Commitment, “Do you resent the smugness of close-minded skepticism on the one hand but feel equally uncomfortable with the smugness of close-minded Christianity of the other?” , I immediately was curious about this book.…

    In my opinion, The Program was a very good book. It had a very interesting plot and was a page turner. But I did feel that it could have been a little more fast paced. I think that the idea of The Program to cure depression is terrible. The fact that they are constantly trying to remeber pieces of themselves seems mean and cruel.…

    It is a book that many young adults can relate to, showing how important good decision making can be. It is a very well-written book, and the plot is very well planned out. The first-person view of this book without question takes the book to a whole nother level, adding an emotional effect to the book by showing what Jonas is feeling about each situation. It is also a very realistic book.
