Review: I really loved Over the End Line. I'm not even really sure what to say about it or the author, Alfred C. Martino. I think that you really have to read the book understand everything that happens and really get the effect of events and different situations on all of the characters, not just the main ones. My favorite part of this book had to be the ending. I didn't see it coming AT ALL. I thought, oh it's gonna have a sort of happy ending. Boy was I wrong! When I got to the point where I only had 20 pages or so left, I skipped the end and read the last line. Which didn't help. I still had no idea what was going to happen. I really loved this book. It was pretty much amazing. I'm so happy I got to read this. I will definitely end up reading Over the End Line again. With everything that happens, how can you not?

Lexi, as the author, I am thrilled that you enjoyed "Over The End Line," particularly the ending! I've noticed that teen readers 'get' the story and the ending much more than old readers. And since I wrote this specifically for teen guys and girls, I hope--as Lexi suggests--you'll give this novel a try!

Sincerely,

Alfred C. Martino
