creekhiker 's review for:
Island of the Blue Dolphins
by Scott O'Dell
Book club book with my niece (see My Side of the Mountain post). She thought the ending was a bit odd. A rather abrupt end to the book, which it was. The decision the girl makes is rather pivotal in the story arc, but yet is rushed and then the book is just finished. We both had fun imaging different endings to the book. I won't go into details (spoilers and all), but I think our alternate endings are a bit better. Of course, the novel is true according to the real life story, but this is a novel, and truth can be achieved in many ways.
