Book details:
Ray Vs the Meaning of Life by Michael F. Stewart 
Publication date: May 15th 2018 | Genres: Young Adult
Synopsis:
Grandma’s Last Will and Testament names Ray to inherit the trailer park. It’s a million-dollar estate with one hitch: to prove he’s not as aimless as he seems, Ray must discover the meaning of life by the end of the month. (She left the answer in an envelope.) If he fails, the camp goes to his estranged family.
How does anyone find the meaning of life while running a park full of misfit miners, would-be truck racers, and one demanding little girl? There’s a bear too. A grizzly. Maybe that’ll help?

Ray VS The Meaning of Life    -    Michael F Stewart        

This book is fantastic!  Not only is it packed with so much drama and action, but it carries a very important message to the reader.
I love the characters.  They each have their own defining personalities and are so well-developed.  I felt their emotions to the fullest.
The cover shows a touch of so many different parts of the story.  It is awesome and the title fits the story perfectly.
I highly recommend this book to all readers who enjoy stories with imagination but also great insight into the meaning of life.
I give this book a literary rating of 5/5
