Customer Reviews

At least it has a nice cover...

Yes, the cover is really the only thing that made me get this book(from the library).It's really cool. But anyways... about the book. I guess I'm the first reviewer. So. This book. It's about a girl named Nancy and her brother Andrew and her best friends Amy and Clare. Also the snob, Sandra and her older sis Tracy. Nancy is an imaginative girl. I guess she's pretty young since she plays with dolls but she charges 15 cents for info on the "birds and the bees". They're british but they live in Canada. The biggest river in China is the name of a fence Nancy hangs around with her 2 friends.Well Nacy comes across a few surprises along the way. THE ENDI must admit I only read up to page 47/148 and I read ahead a little to the end and stuff(I really should stop doing that, It gives the whole story away and then it's just boring cuz you know what will happen but...) THIS BOOK, OH MY GOSH!!! From the first page, no chapter, it was just BORING! I don't know why but I didn't feel like reading it anymore so I moved on to a better book. I don't think I'd recommend this book AT ALL. Hope this 1 review helps in some way......... (If you're up to reading all my useless babble)
