I read the Newbery winners every year and I wasn't very impressed with Moon Over Manifest. Often, while reading, I felt that the author could have developed the plot and/or characters more fully. The story was interesting at points and I found myself rooting for Abilene to find the answers she was seeking, but this book will not find its way to my "re-read" pile.

This is a great story and really moves along. The dialog is good and the the author has a way with words - I laughed out loud several times at her wordplay. A great book for reluctant female readers - the story really grabs you from the very beginning!
