so-soThe story follows a group of friends in New Jersey in their rocky passage toward adulthood. I thought the story idea was good, the writing was just a little too fast paced for me. It made the story seem rushed and a little choppy in parts. I had a hard time connecting with the characters. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

#novemberbythenumbers This book was published #25 years ago. Moody‘s first book,it covers the often trod territory of adolescence into adulthood .I read it maybe 5 years after it came out.While his characters are not all likable, I really FELT what they were going through.Moody called it the most “naked “ thing he has ever written. That‘s good enough for me.
Had to skip @24in48 this weekend because we are sitting on the highway with about 1 million of our closest friends 😩. Plus 2 kids, 2 grandparents, 1 great uncle, every conceivable stuffed animal we own (including a giant sized Nemo) and about 30 books. Some would call this vacation. 🤔 Enjoy the readathon!
