Summary: My first Sunfire book-it was wonderful!
Comment: This was the first Sunfire book I have read and it was wonderful! It was about Jennie Brooks, a young, spirited girl who lives in 1889 Johnstown. Her Aunt, who is a telegraph operator in South Fork, is sick and needs someone to take her place. So they call Jennie up who knows morse code. When Jennie arrives at South Fork's train station her old friend Jim Hurst greets her. Jim obivously likes her but she isn't so kind to him. This got me really mad in the book. I felt like screaming, "Come on Jennie! Stop arguing with him, he's being really nice to you and you have to be really rude!" But most of the time I liked the character of Jennie Brooks. But a handsome reporter comes into the office. He calls Jennie a "boomer" girl and isn't that nice to Jennie but she's nicer to him than to Jim which kept getting me confused. Anyways Jim works for the fishing club for rich steel tycoons (Jennie is against the rich steel tycoons and thinks Jim is evil working for them). He is an engineer and works on the dam. But it's old and it may collapse at any time with all the rains. And that's just what happens. Jennie realizes that she is riding towards Johnstown on a wooden board on a huge wave. She sees houses torn apart that could be her friend's, aunt's, or even her own Mother's. Can Jennie survive this terrifying disaster that took so many lives? And if she does how can she live without anything afterwords? And can she pick between two men that love her (she doesn't really seem to love either through most of the book!)? I think to many people she knew survive, but at least some of them didn't. Though after all the comments I said, there are so many good points in the book! It's just great!
