Review: A true to life story
Rating: 3 out of 5

This is a story of many different lives experiencing a devastating earthquake. It does focus more on a few main characters, while also covering minor characters.  I do not live in an area where earthquakes occur and so maybe that is why I didn't get into the book as much as other reviewers.  The back of the book has information about real earthquakes and where the book idea came from.  This does bring importance to the story; but with this information, and even how it reads, it feels more like nonfiction than a fun story to get a break from real life.  So, for me, I got a little bored, and it was obvious where the story was going.  It was not a bad book, just not one I couldn't put down or would want to re-read.(Disclosure: I received a free copy of the book to review, however complimentary copies do not guarantee that I will review the book, and do not sway my opinion on the story.)
