“I loved this book. It was brilliantly written and captured my attention at all moments. I can imagine what the Gold sisters are going through because of how well Maureen Johnson captivates the moment. I could picture the scenary and the characters. It was an interesting read. It had the full range of emotions going on in it as well. Some parts I wanted to cry(mostly the beginning), and others I wanted to laugh.

“The Key to the Golden Firebird was a very different concept than what I've read I thought this book was alright, but not good at all. If you are a person who can't get along with your siblings or are very different from your siblings, this would be for you. It is a story of three sisters grieving over their dead dad and learning to live life with their different results. I didn't find it affecting me, but I have living parents and just a little brother so I couldn't relate to the situation. I just didn't care for the characters or the story. ”

“A really cute read about having to go through the hardship of having a parent die. Sometimes I hated the way May acted in the books but then again sometimes I hate the way I act so that is realistic in that aspect. Hard to put down. Another work of art from Maureen Johnson. ”
