Give Me Some Truth by Eric Gansworth
3.0
I picked this up because it was a chance to visit again with characters from If I Ever Get Out of Here and to enjoy the intertwining of their lives with their love for music. I was also interested in seeing Lewis, protagonist of the earlier book, from others' points of view.
I was disappointed with it for some of the same reasons others have cited--it did feel overlong and the the problematic relationships were not super-pleasant to read about. I did appreciate seeing things from Carson's perspective, as he was someone who didn't come off very positively in the first book. Certain scenes were strongly written and I was glad to have read them, but I just wish the whole had come together more tightly/effectively.
