This was the most confusing book I have read. The author created a character who is also an author from Russia smuggling out his manuscript in small sections by various friends, which are presented in the book in the order that he receives them. I do not recommend this book at all.

It was silly and not wise to stand up to a bull

It was silly and no one should stand up to a bull

It was too young for me

Good beach read type book. There’s enough intrigue with the main character finding a man alone on the beach who cannot remember how he got there. Alice wants to help him reconnect his memories and they set off slowly trying to piece past events back together. Meanwhile, the reader is allowed snippets of a summer family vacation through the eyes of Gray, who has his hands full playing big brother to his fifteen year old sister, who has caught the love interest of a local older boy.

I really enjoyed this volume! It is told in two parts: the past and present. I had a hard time keeping up with all of the characters from the past and how they are connected. Tyler, Bode, and Kinsey are more than just characters! This was a good time! I am excited to continue the series and see how all of the keys are incorporated. Let the fun continue! The only other thing that bothered me about this volume was the use of homophobic slurs sush as "fag".

Where The Wild Things Are is a book I would read over and over as a child. I love the story so much! I do not recommend the movie but the book is great! It makes me emotional because once Max sends the wild things to bed without supper he gets lonely and realizes he wanted to be with his family because they loved him.

Trigger warning: mention of sexual assault
