Considering how unimpressed I was by the first one, it's a little surprising I read this one, but I'm glad I did. I liked this one so much more than the first one. The outrageous characters were less abrasive and they genuinely seemed united in achieving a common goal. When the Applewhites are fighting to save their home, they decide to open a school for the gifted. I thought the campers were spot-on. Loved that the twins were identified by their colors. Amused that the one was completely and totally in love with Jack after he "saved" her from "drowning." E.D. got a little more of a chance to shine in this one. Destiny still seems like a little girl's name, not a little boy's, but I loved how he always wanted to "help" and be part of the big kids. Winston the dog is cute. I recently finished the book Applewhites at Wit's End by:) Stephanie S. Tolan. The main characters of this book are Jake Sempel, E.D. Applewhite, Destiny Applewhite, Randolph Applewhite, Lucille Applewhite, Sybil Applewhite, Winston the dog, Hal Applewhite, Cordelia Applewhite, Zedediah Applewhite, and Archie Applewhite. The pace of this book is fast. My favorite character is Lucille because shes always calm even in desperate situations. The genre of this book is realistic fiction. I was disappointed when I finished the book and there was a sudden ending that made no sense to me
What do You think about Applewhites At Wit's End (2012)?
A cute sequel, even though it's not quite as good as "Surviving the Applewhites."
