	MeS said: Surprised this one got an agent and an editor. The plot was okay but the main event didn't happen till past the middle. Dialog is dated, stilted and has kids constantly calling each other by name. Lots of flashbacks that seem to be the only way the author could write some scenes. Metaphors that were totally off the subject and jarring.
