• Green Mile, The by Stephen King (1996)

  [6/10]

  "King tells an intriguing mystery story that pulls you along at a good pace and keeps you guessing right up to the end."

• Holes directed by Andrew Davis (2003)

  [7/10]

  "I would have to guess that the book provides more satisfactory development of Stanley's character than the film. I liked the film, and as with any good underdog story, we cheer for Stanley and Zero as they work to overcome both the oppression of their immediate situation and their family history."

• I'll Find You by Clair M. Poulson (2001)

  [3/10]

  "In the hands of a skilled storyteller, this plot could have forced you to the edge of your seat wondering if Rusty will find Jeri in time to save her from the evil murderer Chum. In the hands of Clair Poulson, you have to make a determined commitment that you will push forward through all the unnecessary verbiage, hoping that you won't fall asleep again."
