Sounds a little confusing, but definitely interesting. I'll have to give it a try.

It's pretty exciting to read such a glowing review of a book of the day, and to find out there are also no issues with grammar, etc. This book really does sound amazing. I had a feeling it was after reading the blurb on Amazon. Now upon reading your review, I'm convinced. Thanks for your insight!

I like that this book took that unique take on the coming of age story. Not only does the protagonist take more to the staff than the famous food model, but also the lack of tags to riches focus.

I like that this story seems to happen in "real time" instead of overnight. Thank you for your review, and for sharing your thoughts!

Seems like a good read as a coming of age story. This genre is usually long and spans decades, but lovers of the genre like reading about the journey. I think the cover could be improved but the content makes up for it.

Sounds like this is a book full of unique and memorable characters! I wasn't quite sure I was interested prior to reading your review, but it definitely seems like the type of book I tend to enjoy.

Latest Review: "America, It Was Just An Idea" by Dr. Rayna M. Gangi

Post by Donnavila Marie01 »

Thanks for the detailed review. I love how the author gave characteristics to Darwin, Sweeney, Luther, and Doc. This is a compelling story about a young man named Darwin. At 17, he experienced a different life from what he was used to. He will meet people from the limelights and people whose world revolves around the small kingdom they built. I am giving the author a two-thumbs up for an excellent story about survival, family, and relationships.

You said, "it is a story of a boy who grew in an intense situation." For me I consider it as a must read book. Thanks for great review.

This one sounds like it might be interesting. I may give it a try. Another of William Cole's books sounded good. This one might be too.

Thanks for the review, it makes the book sound super interesting. I'm a fan of relationships developing properly, being strengthened by various experiences. I only wish it wasn't a somewhat helpless boy going to all those challenges but then again, sometimes that's just life. Even if it's not a rags to riches theme, I do so hope it turned out well for Darwin.

An orphan's struggle to find love. Darwin grows up in severe conditions and has trust issues and finds relationships difficult to understand. Looking forward to read the book.
