Apparently the guy goes crazy at the end of the book and someone said there was something kind of pedophilia about him. I didn't see it, I actually kinda identified with him. Maybe I'm a crazy pedophile?

A top favorite of mine. Fascinating book on practical applications of how statistics can be used to make conclusions about whether a group of teachers in Chicago were cheating on standardized tests to how Roe vs. Wade may have contributed to the large decrease in crime at the time that the children would have been in the teen years. Easy to read and hard to put down.

In a review quote on the back of the book it says that Stealing Heaven is "an addictive book about a real world that feels like a fantasy," and that's exactly true. I love the idea for Stealing Heaven - Dani's life is crazy, something none of us could imagine. You might think it's predictable from reading the description, and some other Elizabeth Scott novels definitely are (Bloom, Something, Maybe), but the plot is full of surprises. The plot is compelling, perfectly-paced and fun. But because of Elizabeth Scott's great, vivid writing, this is much more than a quick, fun read - it's also insightful and moving. I thought it would be hard to relate to Dani since her situation is so different from the reader's, but it only took me a few chapters to understand her. After that, she's easy to relate to. The problems she has because of their stealing aren't exactly things I've dealt with myself, but I definitely felt for her. Her situation is actually pretty sad - she's closed off from the world, can't really communicate with anyone other than her mother because they don't want to be noticed by anyone. I don't think I could live with that. Reading about Dani is still loads of fun, though - her personality is great, and I loved her sense of humor. The other chracters are well-written and fully-developed too. I absolutely loved Greg. Making Dani fall for a cop is a perfect idea for this novel. The way Greg believes in Dani and sticks with her despite her bitchiness in the beginning (because, well, he's a cop and she's a criminal) is just so sweet. The romance is one of my favorite parts of this novel. The way it develops is so natural and realistic, but still sweet and swoon-worthy. You couldn't help but root for the couple. Alyson is a great character too. While I could never really warm up towards Dani's mother, her character is also well-written and understandable. ***This next paragraph contains mildly spoilerish information!*** My one problem with Stealing Heaven is the ending. I can't even really explain what I dislike about it, though. How it ends is great - not too happy, not too sad, just right. What I mind is the way the ending happens - in my opinion, it's just too fast. I think Dani's decision should have been elaborated on much more. Some more explanation would have been useful - I didn't get how Dani's and Greg's relationship ends up - Dani and her mom leave town, etc., and suddenly Greg's there too. That seemed a bit forced to me, just wanting to have a happy ending for Dani and Greg (not that I mind happy endings for such cute couples, but still!). Despite my disliking the ending, this is a great, original read, both fun and insightufl! Other than Living Dead Girl, it's my favortie Elizabeth Scott book since it's not as predictable as some of her others. I definitely recommend it! Reviewed at http://www.paperbacktreasures.blogspo...

This one is a Second book, didn't notice the upper part. So it is a bit advanced, and mostly reading and writing.
Lizzie is obnoxiously dumb sometimes, and it can get really annoying. But there are a few one liners that allow for an extra star. Thank goodness for grandma!!!
This book description sounded too mushy and unbelievable for me to read, but I gave it a try... and really enjoyed it. I love that the characters are not perfect and the story line flows quickly.

Pretty good, a little cliche, but it draws you in.

Excellent book. Not a deep long read, but really simplified life and offers some deep truths.
