4.0 out of 5 stars An Superb Read
The book Icy Sparks was excellent in every way that could be possible. I enjoyed it for numerous reasons. The first reason is that this book shows the true heart and compassion of a young girl suffering from Tourette syndrome. Icy's willingness to succeed in her rural Kentucky lifestyle stood out to me. Finally cherishing your friends was important in this story...

2.0 out of 5 stars Just "OK" for me.
This is the first novel I have read in about 15 years. I am really not into reading novels. I prefer non-fiction, however I was going on vacation and chose this book to read as a time filler. It was interesting but very long winded and too much detail in some of the chapters. I found myself skimming through to get to the relevent parts. I could have stopped reading it...

2.0 out of 5 stars Just "OK" for me., July 17, 2006
This is the first novel I have read in about 15 years. I am really not into reading novels. I prefer non-fiction, however I was going on vacation and chose this book to read as a time filler. It was interesting but very long winded and too much detail in some of the chapters. I found myself skimming through to get to the relevent parts. I could have stopped reading it in the last few chapters and not even wondered how it ended. Not what I would call a "can't put it down" book. I did finish it and felt glad to be done with it. I really cannot recommend.

A Kid's Review
The book Icy Sparks was excellent in every way that could be possible. I enjoyed it for numerous reasons. The first reason is that this book shows the true heart and compassion of a young girl suffering from Tourette syndrome. Icy's willingness to succeed in her rural Kentucky lifestyle stood out to me. Finally cherishing your friends was important in this story because rough patches were around every corner.

Overall Icy Sparks was very realistic in a sensible fashion. Rubio portrays a tragic and heart-warming tale that has inspired me to be thankful in many ways for the things I have. I thought this book was wonderful and exquisite to the highest degree and would recommend it to all.
