Kyle has worked hard at being the invisible student, toiling through high school in the middle of Nowhere, Texas. This book pulls every heartstring I ever had! One of the best! I admit that I can be a skimmer of backstory and want to jump to the dialogue sections of a book but the writing was so addictive I was starved to read every metaphor and description possible.So many times I wanted to stand up and shout my support for these two and be there for them when no one else would. This book is so close to real life there is no reason to even need to suspend my reality to connect with Kyle and Brad. If, and only if, the writing is compelling, smooth, and engaging. I can suspend reality so that crazy scenarios or plot twists seem reasonable, even far fetched events won't bother me. Review 1: Overall, I tend to be an easy reader.
