| Customer Reviews:
Beware of spoilers in the reviews! December 1, 2008 I enjoyed this book as a light read, but I caution those who are reading reviews to watch for spoilers in the reviews! I read some of the different reviews to see why opinion was so divided, and many of the reviewers give away key parts of the novel. I was extremely disappointed that so many of them ruined the key plot turns for me and really degraded the enjoyment of watching the story unfold. The book was a nice read with a story that kept me going. If you want to read it, don't read too many reviews... be your own judge.
sawtelle review November 30, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle is the only book I have ever reread as soon as I finished it. Very moving story!
an interesting story November 30, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I did like the story, the family is very likeable except for of course the uncle. I really am not sure though if I like the end.
Hamlet Meets Call of the Wild. November 30, 2008 If you want Hamlet, read Shakespeare. If you want Buck, read Jack London. If you want a great story for a LONG, cold weekend by the fire, read David Wroblewski. Is Edgar Sawtelle meaningful literature? I don't think so, it won't withstand the test of time.
Shakespeare did it better November 30, 2008 Aren't there laws against plagarism? The author should try being orginal with his next novel.
