I enjoyed this book because of the adventures that the characters go through. The author describes the settings in vivid detail. This book surprises the reader with unexpected plot twists. This book keeps the reader engaged with the story line of male children who are kidnapped and trained for world emergence's that the military might not be able to handle.

I did not find Mockingbird interesting. I enjoy a book with happiness and adventure. I also like change and a nice climax in a book. If you agree, this is not the book for you. I found this book quite sad and depressing. I say this because through the entire length of the book Caitlin, the main character, is grieving the loss of her brother. There is little change in the character's everyday life and the story does not lead up any major event. In my opinion the book was boring (Updated about 3 minutes ago)

I really enjoyed the book Smile. I prefer to read nonfiction. This book has a hidden message about dealing with obstacles and change. The main character Raina falls and damages her front teeth. This accident results in her having to get braces. She then has to deal with also wearing a head gear at night and change the way she eats. She eventually overcomes the embarrassment of earing braces and realizes that there are many other people like her. I liked this book.
