I give it a 4 because although i w this book though.even though i was highly interested in these peoples deaths, sometimes it would get a little boring before it said about their death. i had much fun reading this book though. Read it in a day!! 4 stars.

I like the book because of the way its written. The author is sarcastic and funny in the right places. The way he tells you how the famous people died is simply amazing (in my opinion...) Anyway, I give this book 5 stars!

I think this book is really cool, it was kinda weird that every single person in the book had a conection to a person. 5 stars.
