The Chosen
by Chaim Potok
While the book wasn't completely boring, there were a lot of times when I had to convince myself to continue reading. The friendship between the two boys is well done. It doesn't feel fake, and there are definitely ups and downs in their friendship. I give it one star for that. I learned a lot about Jewish culture, and it flowed naturally with the book, so I'll give it another star. I felt that by the end of the book, the characters were a disappointment. I expected them to change drastically, and they never did. I'm still upset with one for what he says on the very last page. There were a few ends that didn't seem resolved, but overall it wasn't a horrible book.
