Amazing. I found the story of the building of the fair to be incredible—-I can’t fathom creating something so huge so quickly in the modern world, let alone more than a hundred years ago. The creepy telling of Holmes and his ‘Castle’ was eerie and tragic. A great historical read.

An OK read . . . a little disappointed in the ending, but not a complete waste of time.

I read this last year and am reading it again, knowing it’s going to inspire me for my impending labor experience.

Inspiring and educational. The birth stories are so empowering, and the information about medical interventions and the way birth/pregnancy are viewed in this country is eye-opening. A must-read for every pregnant woman.

I didn’t enjoy this one as much as the first two. I think I got tired of Becky being irresponsible and immature.

Two intriguing stories made all the more fascinating by the way in which they’re woven together.

I kept having to remind myself that it was all a true story! Fast-paced, a fun read.

OK but not as good as some of the earlier books in the series.

I love the show. Reading a book based on the show is just not the same. I tried to read Buffy books, too, but, gah, it’s too weird.

Yeah, I didn’t like this one at all. Not because of the subject matter, more because it didn’t seem to go anywhere.
