This book while being a quick read raised some interesting questions that I had never thought about before. Most everyone at some point thinks that living forever at a certain age would be really great....you could see amazing people, places, and things and you would never grow old. But this book raises the idea about what do you do when people realize that you dont age....do you keep moving around every 10 years or do you hide yourself away from the world? A great easy read, well worth it!
Great book about eternal life and the issues surrounding it. Better than the movie. A great read for 12 yrs to adult.
Excellent Book! I read it as a child, and it was one of my favorites. It makes you think. The movie did not do the book justice in my opinion.
