jlinhart 's review for:
Unteachable
by Elliot Wake
Wow! This was such a wow book for me. First off I won this book in a Christmas giveaway from my friend Jenny Vee. I had never heard of this book and quite frankly I might have never read it. I tend to shy away from stories about 18 year olds. God am I glad I won this book!
I don't think I have ever read something written the way this author wrote. I'm not sure I have the right words to describe it. Some have said lyrical and poetic and I guess that is a good way to describe it. There was definitely a unique flow. I sometimes felt like I was reading words written like a beautiful painting. It was also very smartly written...intelligent.
Maise I loved her, she was just so matter of fact and wiser than her years. An old soul I guess. Evan gosh so many feelings about him. I liked him, I loved him, I pitied him, at one point I sort of didn't like him. That maybe dislike point was maybe my only bone of contention with the book. I really didn't want him to have done what he did before....yeah I said that criptically on purpose because I don't want to spoil any part of this story, but if you have read it you will understand what I meant.
Leah Raeder, thank goodness you did not give up on writing. That would have been a crime!
