Great!!
It was a very good book! It was very descriptive on all the historical events. I don't understand how people can fall asleep when reading it!! :)
needs to be a little more descriptive. (06/29/07)

I fell asleep.
The book was not very impressive to me. I had fallen asleep each time I read it and that got me ticked off. But I had to read to the end and I skipped half the book.

Well...I found Stowaway..in a way interesting but not as much as the books I like to read ..it was a little on the boring side..although I am a girl..and its not really a girly book I don't think as you would know I am into the princess diaries kinda thing! But although I had to read it I did find it at least a bit interesting toward the middle of the book!


Thanks

hi
It was awesome in the beginning but as they sailed on it got boring. The author draged out somethings that didn't need to go on so long.

This book was great because of all the intereting details it gives of naval life in the 1800's and i think that people who r sayin its boring cant sit down for two seconds to read a book!!!
