I have no problem with the story, or the writing style, I am just not in the mood, for something like this right now, and I have to take it back to the library.

Compelling at times. Other times just filled with tropes and most of the villains are borderline cartoon characterish. However there were some enjoyable parts as well.

I feel like this book is a cross between Something Wicked This Way Comes and Summer of Night. 

Of the 3, Boy’s Life was my favorite.
