The Outcasts of 19 Schuyler Place Audiobook

" I really liked that the main character in this book didn't care what others thought of her. She was determined to be herself. Her uncles were very interesting Hungarian immigrants with colorful personalities that encouraged her independence. "

" I'm not so sure what to think of this book, i love the description of camp! :) "

" This book is quite interesting, I just started to read it. My copy is another version though. "

" The protaganist, a preteen, only child, bright rich girl who (I'm surmising) doesn't have any friends her own age... kind of bugs me. She was annoying. The book was about fighting "the man" (incidentally, I can't think of one female [besides the protaganist] who was portrayed in a favorable light) and standing up against injustice. I admired how the author tied the two plotlines together. I didn't like the way Margaret spoke... it irked me. What twelve year old talks like that? "

" I don't know why this book was on my shelf at home...can't recall when I purchased it. However, I read it because I left my other book in my car, which wasn't home when I was ready to begin reading. I thoroughly enjoyed the story. Yay for YA! "

" Nice easy read with a happy ending! My favorite part was Jake's description about how he needs to create. "

" Okay, this is probably one of my favourite books. I read it in the sixth grade, and I loved it. My favourite part is when she stays in the tree so they wont cut it down. (Don't worry, that didn't spoil anything.) "

" Well, I mean, E L Konigsberg is always absolutely brilliant, I think I just wanted this to be a little more. Really lovely though. Star rating is conservative. "

" Great book! I loved the characters and how Konigsburg tied the book up at the end. My favorite character is Margaret because I admire how stubborn she is, mostly. She is most definitely "incorrageable." 5 stars!! "

" A great book even if it is a bit strange. It will leave you thirsty for more. "

" Very good. Facsinating, gripping all that nonsense. Actually, it is just good, plain and simple. "

" Fun read. However, I found the ending rather abrupt. "

" I was able to skim this book and get the idea of what the book was about. There were times when the book was good, and there were times when the book was boring, and had too many details. This is not your typical E.L. Konisburg..I'm not sure why.. "

" I really liked this one. It was sweet and sentimental which are not usually two things that do it for me in books. But, I really loved the characters in this book. They were each unique and powerful in some way. Even the dog. "

" It's hard to believe the author never heard about Simon Rodia and the Watts Towers in L.A., but anyway, I loved this book. Especially when Rose says, "I prefer not to." I would give this book to readers of Hilary McKay and Jane Birdsall. "

" A wonderful story about what a girl will do to save her uncles towers from being torn down . "

" I love this book so much. The charachters were so real, and the writing was excellent. I felt what the charachters felt. I was singing the British national anthem for the entire time I was reading it! "

" aww, i loved this book. I loved especially the images of the towers and the way art is just so important because it IS. e.l., you're great. "

" this is a really good book! :) "

" It wasn't amazing or groundbreaking, but it was nice. Between this book and the movie Secondhand Lions, I am feeling very deprived of eccentric great uncles. "

" I really liked it up until the very end. The story was good and realistic until the author seemed to want everything perfect for the ending and some very unrealistic things happened. This could just be my problem though, because I like sad endings! "

" I liked it, well, I did up until the very end. I wasn't satisfied with how the author ended it. Despite a well-closed ending, the ending didn't meet my expectations and I wasn't so happy with the outcome of the towers' usage at the end. They deserved better. "

" Exactly as cute as expected, a little more authentic than expected, and almost as whimsical as expected. Just what I needed. :) "

" It was the best book I've ever read, but I wished there was more to the ending. "

" I didn't know what to think of the book when I first began reading. In fact, I thought it was dreadfully boring. I regretted that thought as I went on. I've never read a book like it...it will never leave my mind. "

" Well, I mean, E L Konigsberg is always absolutely brilliant, I think I just wanted this to be a little more. Really lovely though. Star rating is conservative. "

" A great book even if it is a bit strange. It will leave you thirsty for more. "

" I was able to skim this book and get the idea of what the book was about. There were times when the book was good, and there were times when the book was boring, and had too many details. This is not your typical E.L. Konisburg..I'm not sure why.. "

" I love this one! All the Bartleby references in the rest of the world make sense and hearing "Bartleby the Scrivner" did too. re-read 9/10 "

" I think this book exhibits that when one is deeply passionate for a cause, they can make an impact, and in this case, save a masterpiece from being destroyed. "

" I love Konigsburg's books! They're fairly easy reading, but with some layers of meaning. This one was particularly good. Great young adult fiction. "

" This is probably my favorite Konigsburg title. I loved the quirky main characters and the role that art played in their community. I'd tell you more, but "I prefer not to!" *wink* "

" This is a great book! I could barely put it down! "
