sugarblue 's review for:

The Great Santini by Pat Conroy
4.0

I really, really liked this book. I only gave it four stars instead of five because I was expecting it to be as good as Conroy's The Prince of Tides. In my opinion, it wasn't but it is still a really great read - entertaining. The book will ring truth to those of you who are military brats - like myself. Although my father was not as "militant" (not a creative word here but appropriate) as Bull. (And I'm not just saying that b/c I know he'll read this review).

Good book - read it. DO it.
