I've never laughed so much when reading a book! I love how you can really relate to Elizabeth as she gets bombarded with imaginary letters from "the association of teenagers", the cold hard truth association", and all the others! Made me wanna write letters to all my friends. I think every girl should read this book!

I really enjoyed 'Feeling Sorry for Celia'. I am a 13 year old girl (soon to turn 14) and I love this book because it is so engaging. It is continually interesting, because there are unique storylines and several unexpected twists. The characters are realistic, and it makes me wish that I really knew Elizabeth and Celia and Christina. The characters have personality traits that I see in other people I know. Elizabeth's dad often seems to be trying too hard, and one of my friends gives me the exact same impression. All in all, this book was humorous and wonderful.

this is one of my favourite books ever! i got it 2 or 3yrs ago, in the paperback form. i dont like the blurb written for the hardcover edition, the blurb on the paperback is much more interesting and intriguing- it was the reason i bought the book! i've re-read it heaps, the different format is really cool. i'm actually going to be using it as a "related material" in my HSC english exam tomorrow! i think its fantastic and i'd lvoe to see a sequel... so we can find out what her dad's new wife is like, how things go with jared, and share some more of her adventures :)
Fearless, gripping, at once darkly funny and tender, spanning three continents and numerous lives, Americanah is a richly told story set in today's globalized world.
The story of an American family, middle class in middle America, ordinary in every way but one. But that exception is the beating heart of this extraordinary novel.
The best book I've read in a very long time and the first ever Bo Caldwell novel for me. I'd never before read anything about missionaries to China,...
