I really liked this book. I loved that even though the author discusses themes like coming of age, sexual preferences, class, race, mental illness and family disfunction the book never feels heavy or hopeless.

Review from Circle of Darkness →
I love this series so much! Joel did a phenomenal job narrating. The characters were so lifelike and so easy to differentiate between! Cant wait for book 2!!
Oh! the drama’s of being 16 / 17 (lol!) I thoroughly enjoyed this one and look forward to diving into Sam’s next adventures. Narrator did a great job of bringing a bunch of teenagers to life.

The every other chapter narration style was awkward, but at least it meant..
Review from A Sword Named Truth →
The way events are referenced, it seems that this has to be a second or third book in a series. There were no reviews when I picked up this book. I wanted to like it, but all the characters except a villain or two. The entire cast of protagonists are children with simplistic motives that..
