Boy's Life
by Robert R. McCammon
Just a beautiful book. I found myself re-reading passages and just sort of getting lost in the prose. Very reminiscent of "Summer Of Night" and "It" following the life of a boy for one year in a small town - very steeped in nostalgia with bits of magical realism. This was not a quick read for me, while I loved the writing, I did find myself plodding through. The book followed several story lines, and I found myself very vested in solving the murder mystery, and I wish the pacing on that could have been a bit faster. The Epilogue also tripped me up just a bit - I usually love an epilogue (I tend to like things all tied up neat and tidy at the end), but I felt like the epilogue in this story didn't add anything for me.
