I think this book was not entertaining. The chapters were extremely long and were about not important. I DID NOT LIKE THE WAY THE BOOK WAS WRITTEN from different points of view. I can see how an adult can like this book... but for someone who is fairly young this book can be boring. I do not recommend this book for anyone, all my classmates agree........ also

This was a really fun well written book. I read it for my YA book club and I enjoyed it immensely.

This book was really hard for me to get into. Although, once I realized what was going on in the novel with the kid it was kind of interesting. I feel that ever educator should some day read this book. Its told from different view points, and each kid in the novel has a different style of language. I would not judge this book by its cover. It is not my favorite type of novel, but very interesting.

It was interesting.. and confusing at first.

The View from Saturday ended up being an okay book with some stuff to like. The only thing I couldn't really get behind were some of the characters and sayings. For example. Mr. Singh was really unlikable to me. Not matter what, I couldn't stop being annoyed or frustrated. Then there's Mrs. Olinksi, who was weird throughout most of the book but then towards the end - things just sort of clicked.

Other than that, I'm honestly not sure if I would've read this if I wasn't in a challenge that recommended it. Probably not but it was fun to try something new. Even if this whole thing was weird to my poor brain.
