Weeping Willow

Oh My God this is the best book in the world. I couldn't put it down, I read all 230 and something pages in like 3 hours. So moving, and so real, I felt so connected w/ Tiny. You have to read it!

THIS IS MY FAVORITE BOOK OF ALL TIME!

I love this book so much. I have read it four times. The way that the author let's you get to know the main charachter TIny Lambert so well is amazing. You feel like you know her yourself. The author does well in relating this story to teenagers and what sort of problems we face through high school (boys, friends, popularity, not fitting in, and even problems at home) I definetly reccomend this book for all of you to read. You can not put it down! A must read!

I LOVE this book

I read this book in 8th grade, its one of my favorites. Its should become as great of a book as Cather in the Rye, or the Great Gatsby. I just love this book, and it will be one of my favorite forever.

Wonderful book! Two thumbs up!!! My favorite!!!

Too melodramatic, people have said. Yes, and we all know rape is, in real life, just a lovely stroll through the park, right? This is the best book I've ever read, and I'm not just saying that. If you like Weeping Willow, check out "When She Hollers and Kivrin
