I'm going to give it a 1.5-2. It wasn't that bad and had some interesting aspects.

Think I would give this one a "3" -- I like coming of age stories (must be the teacher in me!) and I liked the character of Miles a lot. Kevin

Make mine a 2.75--it was enjoyable but insignificant overall LOL does that make sense? I really liked the ocean lore most.

I'm giving it a 2.75 as well. Although I know it won't stick with me, I enjoyed it quite a bit while I was reading it. I, too, most enjoyed the fun
facts to know and tell.

2.50 It started out well but sort of fizzled out.

A 2.5 from me as well.
It was well-written and had some enjoyable, funny moments.

I'm giving it a 2. An OK read but overall insignificant, as Jill said.
