I thought this book was amazing because I could relate very well to the characters. I also thought it was very good because I love quick reads, and this was a considerably short book. I loved the way Miz Konigsburg was very cryptic and rhetorical when dealing with questions, such as "Had I gained something at Sillington house? Or had I lost something there? The answer was yes." ("Ethan Explains the B and B Inn".221). The plotline was very interesting, and I can't wait to sit down by myself and read it again. I give The View from Saturday two thumbs up (three, if I had an extra hand).
