Old School was so good! The ending was so sad! Why did Leo have to die? I almost cried, and I don't usually cry when reading a book. The good books are so heartfelt and sweet, and Old School is definitely one of them. Everyone should read this book!

Hi, Evelyn A. & Cadence M.,

Glad you enjoyed OLDSCHOOL, even the part where Leo dies. It was a symbolic scene -- Dex had just discovered where the codebreakers were housed during the war, and he'd also just stumped Leo and then the FBI with his code -- it was almost like Leo passing the torch to his young friend.

Thanks for posting and for your comments. -----Gordon Korman-----
