I have read this book more than once and highly reccomend it to anyone hungry for a refreshing book! It's written with great taste and will truly make you laugh out loud. The experinces are real and you can easily picture them in your mind. The main character is like your brother or like a friend the whole way threw. It's like a good buddy telling you of his experinces. It easy to read and a whole lot of fun

After runnning away from home in his jeep, Martin Miller runs out of gas and hides in a canyon. He lives in his jeep, works at a hamburger place, and goes to school. The ending is somewhat predictable, but it works well. Highly recommended.

A Stranger Here is not the type of book I usually read, I grabbed it at the library on an impulse. I was pleasantly suprised with the way Mrs.Wyss wove Jada's intricate personality and her relationship with everyone -including Starr Freeman's ghost- around her. Jada and Starr represent the things we can learn from those who lived, and died, before us; and they teach each other to appreciate the beauty around them. "Oh, Beauty are you not enough? Why then do I cry after Love?"
