Don't Skip Out on Me by Willy Vlautin

4.0

This is a heartbreaking story of a young man, Horace, who works for Mr. and Mrs. Reese who are ranchers. However, Horace dreams of being a championship boxer. The Reeses beg him to stay but he wants to pursue his dream.
Western themed novels, and boxing isn’t my thing, but this story draws you in. You ache for the characters and the poor decisions they make, and the feeling of hopelessness comes through.
