About Repossessed

Parents need to know that there is quite a lot of talk about sex, though nothing graphic, and no scenes beyond one of kissing.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the little changes Kiriel tries to make. Is it possible that such small things could make a big difference? If they are so easy and so within our power, why don't we do them more often? Can the ripple effects of small acts really change lives? Also, what do you think of the depiction of Hell and punishment presented here?

    I rate this title iffy for age 11 and give it 4.0

    Some is awesome and some is boring

    In this book, part of it is interesting, like when he's learning about life, but part is boring, like when he's talking about life in hell and stuff. Overall, this book was entertaining, though.
