Echo Still

I loved this book!

It's a good combination of soccer, religion, friends, and family

Thumbs up!

This book taught me more about Jewish holidays, rituals, and even food.

It was a great book!

This book was just OK

This book is pretty boring at the beginning, but then in the middle you feel like it is actually going somewhere. I did not like this book very much. I felt like there were some parts that were supposed to be really suspenseful, but they actually weren't. Another reason that I did not like this book is because I am not very into sports, but I read it because I had read other books about sports like Understanding Buddy and it was okay. I did not finish this book, and I did not find the part that I read sad at all.

This book had many twists and turns. Fig was an amazing athlete but was going through hard times at home. This story made me want to read more by Tim Tibbitts. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes a mix of sadness and adventure.

I couldn’t put it down until I had to

I would read more books by this author.

This book made me think more about being Jewish.

it was awesome but there were many times i could not relate to him at all because he was soooooo different to how i celebrate being different. also i don't think it would be good for a little kid. i also don't think any can relate to him, because his mom died and he was left with his Christian father still raising him Jewish but really it is a good book.

Even though the book has a soccer ball on the front cover, it is not mainly about soccer. Even though I can't describe what it is mainly about. Though the book is categorized as contemporary fiction, I think it should be categorized "realistic fiction." I would never regret rating this book 4 stars.

When Fig gets kicked off the team his GG comes to visit but not just to see them. She has medical tests but doesn’t mention it and looks like she’s having a great time. Fig doesn’t know it but his GG has cancer.

too good to be true

"Echo Still" is the story of Fig, a normal, Jewish, 12-year-old 7th grader who loves to play soccer. He thinks his science teacher hates him and his dad is forcing him to go to Bar/Bat Mitzvah classes which he thinks are boring.
At the beginning, Fig’s character is portrayed as someone who is selfish and a showoff. However, I believe he changes when his grandmother comes to visit and when he goes to Tony’s house on Christmas instead of helping at the soup kitchen.
This novel is targeted towards young teens or tweens.
