Caroline Varon carolinevaron — Seeing as The Mists of Avalon is one of my all-time favorites, I wasn't sure I wanted to read another take on the classic king Arthor story - but I'm so glad I did. White gave a completley unique and imaginative view of the story (imagine Lancelot with a "hideous face!"). Tore my heart a little to see Morgaine portrayed as wicked, but alas... So many unforgettable characters and I still chuckle when I think of King Pellinore and the Questing Beast! A good dose of ethics and musings on "might for right" at the end. The Mist of Avalon is still my favorite, but The Once & Future King is right up there.

Duan Yuliang _ryptozoiceon — When I picked up Lost and Found, I had it pegged as chick-lit. You know, a kind of book that's not deep at all and just all fluffy and light, where you don't get all of those overwhelming feelings you usually get when you read a more "serious" novel. Well, I was wrong about this book. It was plenty fun, but it was also a fascinating (and sometimes heart-wrenching) character study. I'm not a fan of reality tv (at all). I just don't watch it because most of the time I think it's fixed and watching people make complete fools out of themselves in front of billions of people (especially when it's done on purpose) just doesn't entertain me. So, if Lost and Found was focused solely on that, then I would've lost interest rather quickly. But it didn't and the characters were extremely different from each other and extremely flawed. The characters all have their own set of problems that run from very deep for some and from not even on the surface (or at least that we readers can see) for the others. The reality theme is really just a backdrop to all of the dramatic events that take place. However, just because there moments of drama (which, let's face it, appear in every reality show even if it is fixed), Lost and Found also had its share of witty and often hilarious moments. While you're reading the book, it becomes obvious that the author, Carolyn Parkhurst, is mocking the whole "reality tv" thing by having the actual characters mock it as well. It can be by the mannerisms of the host to make every single thing seem full of suspense and dramatic or by the implausibility of some of the things that the characters do on camera, either way, every single point gets across and made me laugh out loud. Even though the reality tv segment was mostly in the background (and even though I vastly dislike reality tv), I found myself enjoying all of the different tasks being given. I was reading mostly for the characters' interactions, but I'd be lying if I said that the outcome of the show didn't have me turning the pages just a little bit faster. I was so into it that I found myself thinking "This person better not win" or "Good! They're disqualified; no more screen time for them!" Lost and Found really was the equivalent to watching reality tv on an actual tv. Lost and Found was just great! It's dramatic, humorous, and action-packed all in one neat little package. You have characters that you can root for and some that will sometimes get on your nerves (Ahem, Cassie, I'm sorry but I find myself disliking teens that feel that they're the only ones entitled to pain in literature), but overall, you just want to see what happens to all of them. You get a real sense of who a character is and what makes them tick by having them all narrate different chapters. Plus, this book did what reality tv fails to do and that is display the contestants/stars of the show as real people. Highly recommended!

Ariful Islam arifulbd97 — This book was hard to put down. It was very fast paced. It was adapted for film in 2002 and released as Trapped with Kevin Bacon as the bad guy and Charlise Theron as the female lead.

Denis Serikov _enisbox — Charming read. Loved their parenting style. Very humorous life. Just as good as the movie.
