Summary: This novel should be made into a movie
Review: I read this book cover-to-cover in 2 days - I couldn't put it down. Toby-Potter's characters have the kind of quirkiness about them that one finds in an Anne Tyler novel. Her character development is so graphic that I could visualize certain actors in a movie version of this story. (For one, I see Philip Seymour Hoffman cast as Frank.) Toby-Potter's writing is rich and bold throughout this unusual and compelling story. A remarkable first novel.

Summary: "The Average Human" Not an "Average" Book!
Review: In short, this is a beautiful book that reveals the tangles and snarls of a tragic family history. I really enjoyed Toby-Potter's detailed characters and plot--she knows how to write and how to let the characters live their own lives on the page.I loved reading this book the first time, and I'm sure I'll read it again.

Summary: More Than Average Human
Review: Take it from me ( my eyes are just about popping out of my skull from all the books I read)...MUCH More than average, they are 'extra'-ordinary humans.
Amazing characters that any (except the weak of heart, or fundamentalists) will throughly enjoy.
USA today had it as a summer read...IT'S an OTTO's MUST READ.
Enough said, I don't want to give away any part of the book.

Review: The Average Human is a fantastic novel. It has everything--fascinating characters and a plot that keeps you guessing. You get to see the underbelly of a community and the people who live there. I absolutely LOVED it. Ms Toby-Potter has a way with the English language. I can't wait to read her next novel!!

Summary: the darkest average human
Review: This novel was amazing. I am not a fan of fiction, but when i started reading Toby-Potter's the Average Human I was completely enthralled by her mastery of language, and character development. It is a rich, dark novel with so many twists, you may feel as if yo uwill lose yourself, but everything comes back full circle. Everything ties itself back together beautifully and one is left with the imagery, the beauty and the tragedy of the town of Loomis. It's incredible that it is only her first novel.
