kf_pete 's review for:
Tuck Everlasting
by Natalie Babbitt
This is a quick, thought provoking read for its intended audience. As an adult, I found it a little thin. I thought it wrapped up nicely, but that was probably my favorite part of the book.
I also found myself really appreciating that they aged Winnie up in the movie version. By far my least favorite part is where 17 (or 100+) year old Jesse asks 10 year old Winnie to marry him. It felt icky? And I think the book may have worked a lot better for me if Winnie was 15/16.
