Emily, Nicole, MarvelousMatty and I would love to have you join us when we read this book.

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

OMG! I hope you all LOVE this book. It is amazing! I am planning on reading the novella/short story: soon!

[Emily]

Thanks for making the thread, Vicki.

[Vicki]

YAY! I just bought it, Jacque! LOL I'm so easily convinced. It's short!

[Vicki]

You are so welcome, Emily. Thanks for reading it with me! :o)

[Matty]

December 20th sounds fine(:

[Vicki]

Glad it works for you, Matty!

Woo hoo! Thanks for making the thread, Vicki! :)

[Vicki]

You're very welcome, Nicole. Thanks for joining us! :o)

[Mandiann]

I will try to join!

[Emily]

My copy just came in at my library. I was starting to get a little nervous I wouldn't have it in time.

[Vicki]

That's GREAT, Emily! :o)

[Emily]

I'm on page 30 so far I'm not sure what I think of it. As many people that have raved about it, I'm hoping it gets better.

[Vicki]

I hope it gets better for you, too. I haven't begun it yet.

[Mandiann]

I have not started yet either.

I finished the other books I was reading and started this today! Only a few chapters in, and I like that they're short but full of information. I really enjoyed the mom's story about (view spoiler)[giving birth to Auggie. I remember little quirky details about the hospital and birth of my one-year-old son, and that definitely made me chuckle a little bit :) (hide spoiler)]

[Emily]

I'm on Page 76 now the chapter The Bleeding Scream.
(view spoiler)[ I don't like that Julian kid. Summer is really sweet though, still not sure what I think of the story overall yet. (hide spoiler)]

[Emily]

I just started part six. I would have discussed more but was traveling while reading.
(view spoiler)[ I don't like Julian or his mom. What a horrible woman!
I'm I the only one who feels like these kids act older than ten, I mean all of them. That kind of bugs me but doesn't take away from the story. I just pretend their like twelve. Maybe I'm just too old to relate. :(
I didn't understand why there were no caps or quotation marks in Justin's part, anyone have any theories why the author chose to do that? (hide spoiler)]

[Emily]

I finished it was okay. Not one of my favorites, but it was still good.

[Megan]

This was one of my favorite books EVER! If you all plan on reading the Julian Chapter, let me know. I've had it on my Kindle for about 6mts unread.

[Vicki]

What is the Julian chapter? Do not all editions have that chapter?

[Megan]

It's a separate book to my knowledge. Maybe the newer ones have this one, I read Wonder before his part was released.

[Vicki]

Oh, OK, I do have that and I will read it after I read WONDER.
