Gabby Babcock | 22 comments i like the book tangerine. the begginning is kinda slow but i think it will get better. i like how it tells about pauls life and how he is settling into his new home and school. i dont like how they keep repeating about eric's football dream.


message 2: by Allie (new)

Allie Darish | 20 comments The book starts slow and its boring but with many books I read there slow but then they pick up the speed and get very good. I have high hopes for this book and hope this meets my expectations.


message 3: by Allie (new)

Allie Darish | 20 comments I also think this is slow but I think it will get better. To gabby


message 4: by Cherokee (new)

Cherokee | 10 comments I like this book so far because it just grabs your attention in the beginning, like when he woke up at 7 and smelled an ashtray kind of smell and then he told his mom, that made me want to keep reading and reading! But the book kind of makes me question on his family on whether or not they might move agian because they might now be able to take the muck fires/smoke.

I don't find the book boring, I just think we need to get farther in the book for it to be more intersting.

Domenic Portuesi | 9 comments this book is ok, its not good but its not bad. i think it can be a little slow at times and does not get to the point quick enough. but overall it is an ok book.

Andrea Ehrhardt | 11 comments I like the book. Its slow in the beginning but it is interesting. It is also very easy to read. Nothing has happened in the beginning besides them moving so it makes the book boring but I think it will get better.

i agree this book is getting better but it still is slow and should have more detail about tangerine county

message 42: by Anna (new)

Anna Lin | 13 comments I agree with all of you that in the beginning, it is too slow but it gets better afterward. I'm really far into the book and I really enjoy reading it.

I didn't really like the football dream either. It makes me feel like Erik is a selfish person.

When I read that part I feel like I was there with them and I question if they are going to move too.


message 45: by Anna (new)

Anna Lin | 13 comments Allie wrote: "I also think this is slow but I think it will get better. To gabby"

It's better. I'm farther into the book and I just keep reading and reading and I'm flying through it.

I don't like Erik that much, he is kind of mean, & I do agree that he is selfish.


message 47: by Maggie (new)

Maggie | 12 comments Paul is the main character in the book. Paul has to wear really thick goggles because he stared into a solar eclipse.


message 48: by Holly (new)

Holly Neuens | 18 comments My question is; Why did Erik try to kill Paul?


message 49: by Gabby (new)

Gabby Babcock | 22 comments my question is; why does the group of kids that go to tangerine middle always fight? im not that far in the book but it seems that they have been fighting a lot.

In the Book did it ever say the age of Paul or Eric
