Since I had already read his two other fiction books, and really enjoyed both of them, I wanted to read his first one. But it wasn’t available on Amazon as a Kindle e-book, so I had to purchase a used physical copy.
Once I started, it was hard for me to put it down as I wanted to know what was going to happen. I called it a coming-of-age story to my wife as the narrator and main character has just graduated from high school and is working a summer job before he heads off to college. Had has his high school friends who he hangs out with a lot doing stuff, but while on the job, he meets a woman who is a few years older. They end up in a relationship, and he has to make a decision; girl or college or both!

Another one of those books that I enjoyed more than I anticipated. Tim's personality was both believable and enjoyable, and his situation was familiar yet unique. All-in-all, a very good story(especially because it managed to talk about baseball without annoying or confusing me).

This had potential, but I was stuck with how little of a personality that Tim had.

I really liked this book. It's interesting to see Tim become a different person during the course of the story. The way he reacts to things once he's met Helena kept me turning the pages.
