4.2.2016 - Leaving Blythe River

Leaving Blythe River: A Novel

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read the latest book from one of my favorite authors! You're always guaranteed a quick read - her stories pull you in - with a feel good, moral but not preachy vibe.

This book centered around Ethan - a small for his age 17 year old living in Manhattan who never quite lived up to his parents' very athletic lifestyle and never felt like he fit in. After his parents separate and his mom needs to leave to take care of her ailing mother, Ethan is forced to go and live with his father in the mountains. Without giving anything away, Ethan is forced to confront all of his fears and find courage that he never dreamed he had.

This would be a great young adult read also.
