REVIEWS
What readers are saying
After reading this book, I told all of my friends and family about it. The writer makes you fall in love with the main character and hate him at the same time. Each character in the book will either remind of of the people in your life, the people you wish you knew or the people you steered clear from. It makes you as a reader feel like you are apart of Jack’s world. It’s takes a basic premise like “How do your choices form the world around?” and relates it to life, death, and everything in between. I wasn’t sure what I was getting into reading this but it took me on an emotional rollercoaster. At the beginning, I was scratching my head. Throughout the book, I was either rolling my eyes or laughing out loud. By the end, I was an emotional wreck.
Joy Dougherty - Goodreads
Supporting new authors is important. One never knows.
This is a phenomenal read. It starts out “all in”, then the author is able to take the reader from anxiety to tears.
