Ok a little boring after a while October 6, 2000 8 out of 15 found this review helpful
The first story was really good, but the other two were just plain boring! I know this is a way short review, but what can I say, it was depressing and boring!
The BEST book I have EVER read!!!!!! July 27, 1999 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I saw this book in the library and it really compelled me to read it. I love the type of story that follows something like the ring to different stories. I could not stop reading this book!! I read it in 3 days what normally takes me 2 weeks!!! I told all my friends about it and they read it too!! This book really opened my eyes to what M.E. Kerr has written and since then I have read several other books by her. You MUST read this book if you like that kind of story!
Very lovely story! April 26, 1999 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I Stay Near You is about three generations of two families. I liked it because it was a romantic story, and the characters seemed to be real. There wasn't a lot of action, but the story was good enough to keep me hooked. I like the idea of using three generations of the two families, but I was a little confused in the last part of the book. I was not so sure who the character was. After I found out that it was the grandson of the first character, I understood the story better. This story kept my interest because the characters had so many problems. I liked the way the author would introduce new characters as the story went on. Also, the book was like reading history because it started in the 1930s and ended up in the 1990s. The book also had a part about the 1960s where it talked about the the Beatles. I heard about this singer group because they were famous. This historical information was interesting to learn because I knew very little about this time period. I can say that this book was very fun to read.
A tremendously well written must read!!! November 15, 1998 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
All 10-15 year olds who enjoy reading books based on the reality of life should read this book. The mess that tangles itself in the first story never completely unwinds, and I believe most who read this book will agree that the family troubles with romances can occur in real life. Some may not realize it, but the author's theme is very real in society today even more than in '85 when the book was first published.
A must read!! August 21, 1998 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I checked this book out of the library a couple times a year from the time I was 10 till I was 14. I have wanted to read it again ever since, so I bought it from Amazon and read it in an hour. You get so wrapped up in the characters lives it hardly seems possible when it ends. I want another generation.
