Kate Hook katehook — Interesting story where the protagonist is not particularly likable. The writing style is broken and choppy. This may be a devise of the author to give us a look into the first person mind set, but at times it does make it hard to get a real page turner rhythm going. Dark humor and full of anachronistic references, I see why I liked this book so much in high school.

Graeme Mellis mellisgraeme43 — I have read this book so many times. Once I start it, I absolutely can't put it down. I started out borrowing it from my library all the time, until finally I found my own copy. It's my favorite book by Avi, who is truly a very gifted storyteller. The book focuses on 13-year-old Charlotte Doyle, making the passage (alone) from England to Providence, Rhode Island, to be reunited with her family. They've taken care of all the arrangements, booking her passage aboard the Seahawk. But from the moment she first steps on board, Charlotte senses that there is danger on the ship. There are secrets, betrayals, murders, and mutinies--all giving this thrilling high seas mystery a spot on the shelf! The characters are very vivid--from Charlotte's quiet friend, Zachariah, to the commanding and cruel Captain Jaggery. Avi spins his magic.

Ghazaleh Rastgar ghazalehrastgar — Not for the faint of heart, NEW YORK is powerfully written. Its length will be daunting to some, but Rutherfurd captures the essence of NYC. His characters are well woven into the history of New York. I can't give it a 5 as there were some problems with the plot and sequencing...some of the history was "glossed over" and/or vague. However, it held my attention and I did like how the characters progressed. I have visited NYC twice and this novel allowed me to visit it again.
