The book, Christy, was a very good book. It was full of excitement, and was a book that taught you many interesting lessons. I had a great time reading this book, and recommend it to anybody else who needs a book to read.

This book had very well developed characters, such as Christy, David, and Alice. Christy was an interesting character. She didnít expect the poverty that she found in Cutter Gap, a small town. Christy went to Cutter Gap, because she wanted to escape her home, and be out in the world on her own. Then she was overwhelmingly surprised by what she found there. David was the minister of Cutter Gap. He had to go through many tough situations when he was minister. Everyone depended on him, and expected David to know everything. David was a stressful man, and couldnít cope with any of his situations. Alice was the hero of Cutter Gap. She showed the town the important things in life, and could comfort anyone with her comforting words of reinforcement. Alice was a great, and powerful character in the story.

This story had a great plot. It was a plot about an unknown town of Cutter Gap. Christy was a teacher that came there looking for excitement, and was extremely disgusted at what she first found there. Christy soon became accustomed to to the ways of life in Cutter Gap. She began to love it there, and helped the people during tough situations. Christy began to make great friends in the town of Cutter Gap. She met Alice, Fairlight Spencer, David, and all of the other people in the town of Cutter Gap. Christy grew at home there, and loved it. The people welcomed her to their town, and wanted her to feel at home there. The people in Cutter Gap began to grow attached to Christy, and felt like she was part of their society. Christy was welcomed by the town, and was welcomed with pure pleasure.

This book was a great book! I really recommend it to anyone who is needs a decent book to read.
