I received this book from one of the Smashbomb giveaways in exchange for my review. I didn't think I'd like it very much because the movie trailer looked kind of stupid, but it was still exciting to see the package in the mail! (I haven't seen the movie yet, and don't know if I will.) I began the book not expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised. It read very smoothly, and had just enough tension at the beginning to keep me coming back. I enjoyed the story for quite awhile. Then the plot found its way into a weird twist. Not that I didn't expect some sort of twist. I just didn't expect the one character to be...like she was. For the rest of the novel, I wasn't sure how strange the plot was going to get. The story was tolerable for the most part and I was going to give it a higher rating, but I am not a fan of the ending. While I wasn't surprised by it, I wished that it would have ended in a different manner. Therefore, I'm a bit torn over my review. I didn't hate the story, itself, for a fictional escape, but the ending sunk the whole thing for me. I'd say that it's a decent beach read, if you're looking for something with a little suspense and mystery. I wouldn't recommend it to any deep-thinking book clubs, though.

I think this is a fantastic film. I was sure it was just going to be a run of the mill slasher horror film but it changed completely half way through and I really wasn't expecting it. Well made, we'll acted, we'll written.

I watched this film with my brothers and sister and they loved it. I thought it was a fun kids movie with a great plot and good actors. The premise is interesting and I enjoyed it!

This is a great read. If you are a dog lover you will enjoy this book. I have laughed, and teared up as I read this book. Highly recommended. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

I know this book is a middle school book, but I think everyone should read it. I have a greater appreciation for the mentally disabled now and my life will be richer for it. Belongs up there with "Wonder" as required reading.

Smile is a cute, relatable graphic novel about the author's experiences with her braces and growing up. I thought it was extremely good because I also had braces and a rough time in my teens. That is why I give this 5 stars.
