the extraordinary life of sam hell by robert drugoni
coming-of-age / literary fiction, 434 PP
How do I insert a LOVE, LOVE, LOVE emoji here? Please Mr. Dugoni, let Sam “Hell” Hill have a happy ending – that’s the thought which ran through my head with every page I turned. Sam is one of the most relatable characters I’ve encountered in a long time. He is real. His parents are real. His friends are real. His enemies are real. And, every emotional tug on your heart reading his story is real. Hit the link to this one NOW. Buy it, borrow it, do whatever you need to get your hands on a copy and read it! I have a hard copy and a Kindle version if anyone wants mine. Also a great choice for a Mother’s Day gift idea.

That’s the thing about books. They let you travel without moving your feet.
