About this title

Synopsis

Written in the first person this is a moving story that the reader who enjoys coming-of-age novels like The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Catcher in the Rye or A Separate Peace will savor and enjoy completely.

                                            

It is a fascinating novel that explores friendship, dating and first love on a typical American college campus.

                           

"The characters come alive: from Colin's hippy, trust-fund baby girlfriend, to his critical but seemingly well-intended father, to his outcast friend."

                                     

5* "never read another book 5 times...emotions come back...love it!"

                    

5* "Don't miss it, I believe it's going to be a classic."

 

5* "Authentic & satisfying...with perfect clarity, the best choice of words, & a little pixie dust, he created a world so real to me that I was surprised when I realized I'd just been reading my Kindle in my favorite chair."

 

"Murray draws Colin with immediate emotional pungency, and he doesn't lose the beat even when the situations turn slapstick...A coming-of-age story with plenty of sting, where love is not only blind, but it blindsides." - Kirkus Reviews
