Book Reviews of Lottery
Book Review: An enjoyable summer read
Summary: 4 Stars
I finished this book in one day; it is about 300 pages but the print is rather large, so my speed had more to do with the fact that I wanted to know what was going to happen next, and couldn't put the book down. I enjoyed the story and thought Perry's grandmother was hilarious. The ending was slightly disappointing, *spoiler alert* and by that I mean Perry's final decision regarding his lottery proceeds. I did not like Perry's love interest, but I guess her presence made for some interesting drama. It borders a bit on Forrest Gump as others have brought up, and Perry does at times seem to be more intelligent than his character was intended to be. But overall it was an interesting, funny, and enjoyable story.Book Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was a total surprise to be as I did not expect it to be as good as it was. I rated it 5 stars, but would have rated it 10 stars if I could. It is a wonderful, down to earth, heartfelt story that left you feeling joy.Book Review: Awesome Book!

Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book and I was immediately moved to e-mail the author, something I rarely do. This was the best book I have read in quite a while. It definately goes in the "hard-to-put-down" category. It's a feel good, Forest Gump type story that gets you from the very beginning. I will recommend this book to everyone I know who reads.Book Review: Delightful !!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the most enjoyable stories I've read in quite a while, and I'm happy to hear that it's been optioned for a movie. If the screen writers adhere closely to the book it'll be great.
I finished it in record time. And to think it is the author's first novel. Great going, Patricia Wood!!!!
