Great book.

I liked this book. This is the first book I've read by this author, and I plan on reading more of his books. I highly recommend it.

The Strange but Exciting book

Imagine sneaking into people's houses just for the fun of it. Well in this book by: Joyce Graham. This exciting book called The Exchange is filled with things that mite happen to any average teenager. Caz and her best friend Lucy like to do a thing called the creepy thing but when Caz gets caught by this creepy old lady everything starts to change. When she gets home she realizes that there is a bracelet on her wrist and the bracelet seems to be glowing. The book is filled with ways of her and her best friend trying to get ride of the bracelet. I liked this book because it helps you understand the way that teenagers think and get through problems in there every day life. There are a few things that I might change a little. Like how Lucy's father treats her everyday. And how all these really scary people always fallow Caz and her friends around. I would have to say the best part of the book is the very end. But overall the entire book is really fun. If you like books with many surprises and confusing things go on at all these different things happening at strange times in the book then this is a book for you. So read the book the Exchange.

Exchange Falsehood for Truth

Graham Joyce continues to commit magic with his writing. His superb witchy novel "Limits of Enchantment" went beyond his "Dark Sister." "The Toothfairy" is wicked and delicious. And like his "T.W.O.C," or Laura Whitcomb's lyrical and insightful "A Certain Slant of Light," this poignant novel and its subject matter reaches beyond the intended age group. This is a wise, magical read for adults, poetic, capturing the angst of teenagers, and the need we all have challenge false boundaries. Surviving the stupidity and/or violence of the world, and becoming truly aware is rendered here is a unique way. Enjoy! The Tooth Fairy: A Novel The Limits of Enchantment T.W.O.C.
