I read Anderson's Speak not too long ago, and really liked it. So, when my mom got this one from the library, I decided to read it.
The main character in the book, Kate Malone, reminds me a lot of myself. She's smart, ambitious, an over-achiever, and a runner (except she's good at it, while I'm not). Now I know not to only apply to one college, because when they turn you down, it won't be fun.
This book was very sad. I do not recommend that you read it if you are already feeling depressed, because it will not help. It does have a slightly hopeful ending, though.
Overall, I really liked this book. It was a good way to start the read-a-thon.

I read Speak maybe a month ago, and thought it was great. Glad you liked it, even if it was depressing.
Good luck and Happy Reading!!
since i loved Speak so much, i'm definitely going to have to read Catalyst. maybe i'll even read it today for the read-a-thon!
I read Speak a while back and really like it, and I've also read Fever 1793. I have Catalyst, which I picked up at a book sale at some point. This is the first review I've read of it, though, so thanks for writing about it!
I'm adding this book to my wishlist! Loved Speak....
