My Sunshine Away by M. O. Walsh

3.0

This story had a lot of potential. There were a few pages where Walsh goes into excessive description about Louisiana, weather, and food which I felt very un-enthused as it added nothing substantial. Walsh did a good job at painting the story of coming of age with nostalgic colors, so much that I all felt it was going to lead up to a grand payoff of satisfaction but was just met with a lackluster reveal. Left me saying, "that was it?" The story seems unbalanced to me. Lots and lots and lots of build up of unknown details of an event that takes place, thickly coated with thoughts and emotions of an obsessive/lust driven teenage boy.
