Summary: An easy read with a good story line
Comment: After reading When Rain Clouds Gather for an AP English class I realized more about myself. With the moral and ethical backrounds being so different from my own it was extremely interesting. Although very slow-moving at times, especially with all the talk about agriculture, it still had a heart-felt story. By reading this novel, it helped me to realize how religion and wealth have both enriched and spoiled our own lives.

Summary: Realistic about the situations
Comment: Hi, I did When Rain Clouds Gather in my 11 Grade, im From South Africa! This Book Stimulated my thoughts about what happened here in this part of the world, the stuggle and the Lack of equal Rights! It also made you wonder, how many African Children Didnt get an Education or an Good Education! This is a Book that i would advise you read, its Honest, tells it as it happened, or in some case in Africa, as it still is happening!

Summary: Poorly written, random digressions, and very boring
Comment: When Rain Clouds Gather has to be one of the most boring books I've ever read. The structure is way off as the author randomly describes different parts of the story that have long been forgotten or are irrelevant. Descriptions of characters, places, and background information occur way too often, sometimes taking up more than half of each chapter.
The story also switches focus randomly and way too often with no transitions and characters pop up out of nowhere. Most of these characters have no relation to the main story and I feel that they were just added in to make the book longer (for some stupid reason).
When Rain Clouds Gather is incredibly boring and I'm sorry to say that I would NOT recommend this book to ANYONE.
