Playing Solitaire

I think that the book was good because it related to her own life.And the thing that I like the most was when they founed the dog under the porch and she had her puppys and I think she should write another part to the book.

Playing Solitaire

I liked this book because it was funny,sad,easy to read,and I couldn't put the book down for a second. The most exiting piece was when the grandmother choked the drunk father.

Playing Solitaire

I thought the book Playing Solitaire was a very good book, because the main character Ellie is finding refuge with her Grandpa in Drasco, Texas. Ellie is staying with her Grandpa because she is trying to escape her alcoholic father who cut off three of fingers on her left hand. Ellie starts to get worried when her father calls her one night after dinner and after her mental grandma tells her that he has benn there to visit her. Ellie doesn't tell her Grandpa because that would ruin her plan. Will Ellie shoot her father if he does come? Will her dad even come back?
