A Greater Goode is Better than Good!!!
A Greater Goode is an umbelievable novel full of suspense and a happy ending. I cant wait to read the second one. I recommend this book for people from 9-100. Everyone should read A Greater Goode.

Does all this mean "The Greater Goode" is a copycat? Definitely not. This is a Feel Goode book, remember? One that is suitable for anyone over, say, age 10. The language is not problematic for youth, nor is the message. On the other hand, the book is well enough plotted, the characters well enough drawn for any adult.
Does this then mean that Amy Schor Ferris's book is destined to be a classic? Maybe. Of course, whether or not a book becomes a classic is not wholly determined by its timelessness or its quality. If the universe is having a just day, this book may very well make it.
Ms. Ferris knows how to tell a good story and she does. I may become a fan of young adult literature all over again. Come. Share with me. Get to know spunky Addie Goode and her tribe of interesting friends and family. Learn or review old lessons of life with her. Be surprised by her fresh, youthful take on an ageing world...
