Finding Me Listener Reviews

" This book had a good beginning relating the story of Blaze and her identical twin sister. After a tragic fire, their lives change. Blaze was an outspoken, funny and likeable to a point eleven year old. She grows into a character that I did not like or respect. "

" I just wasn't in the mood for this in the end. I didn't even get to the lesbian part, although she does call lesbians "lady lickers" which I may adopt. "
— Sarah, 4/27/2012 -
" Beginning grabbed me lock, stock and barrel. However, i'm not into the detailed love scenes, but frankly those were the most "exciting" parts. Blaze's early narrative during her preteen years were really good and realistic. The ending was very disappointing. "
— Ronni, 10/12/2011 -
