Book details:
Going Places  by Kathryn Berla 
Published by: Amberjack Publishing
Publication date: March 20th 2018
Genres: Contemporary, Young Adult
Synopsis:
Everyone had high expectations for Hudson Wheeler. His fourth grade teacher even wrote to his parents that Hudson was “going places.” But everything went downhill after his father died on the battlefield of Iraq one year later. Now facing his senior year of high school without his two best friends by his side and with his teacher’s letter still haunting him, Hudson seizes homeschooling as an opportunity to retreat from the world.
What happens during this year will prove to be anything but a retreat, as Hudson experiences love and rejection for the first time and solves the painful mystery of the “girl in the window”—an apparition seen only by the WWII vet whose poignant plight forces Hudson out of the comfort zone of boyhood.
Going Places is a peek into what male adolescence looks like today for those who don’t follow traditional paths as they strive to find themselves.

Going Places     - Kathryn Berla                                

This is a well written story.  It is fun to follow a young man through his daily life. It is interesting to see how differently guys think about things than how girls do.

I feel like the characters are well-developed and each had their own distinct personality traits.

There is romance, friendship, suspense and much more in the story.  I really enjoyed reading it. I would recommend it to others. I like the cover of the book and the title fits the story perfectly.


I give this book a literary rating of  5/5
