I LOVED this book!! I really liked the parts when she developed her brother's pictures from the war! At the end (edited)... was one of the best parts. (Mrs. M, you do not have to put in the last line. I kind of gave away the ending.
5 stars! I Loved when she developed the film. The ending is the best!
3 stars. Shooting the Moon sounded like it would be exciting. However, the book did not keep my interest, and I stopped reading after three chapters.
5 stars. at first this book was really boring. But then it started to get good when t.j went of to war and stated to send back pictures of the war.
5 stars. I loved it! I liked the part when TJ didn't develop the film himself but he sent it to Jamie, his sister to develop. I liked how he went to war because he served as a medic and he got ... [SPOILER].
5 stars. It was awesome! It was really cool when Jamie developed the pictures.
1 star. I didn't think that there was much of a story to this book. I also think that that it could be longer and have a better ending.
there was alot going on.(only keep reading this if you have read the book) the brother is captured and 4 something like 2 or 3 years he is kept prizonor(spoiler!)
3 stars. I think "Shooting the Moon should get 3 stars because there wasn't much excitement. Also because it was a little sad.
