Two Roads from Here
by Teddy Steinkellner
As a graduating senior, I thought this book would be something I could relate to regarding end of high school feelings and college decisions. However, it wasn't; the characters kind of treated their senior year like any other high school year except with college in mind (which I guess it was senior year is like). But there was no real excitement which was a bummer.
I was really looking forward to reading about all of the characters after reading the very short questions on the dust jacket; however, I found that I really didn't like any of the characters. Wiley was especially annoying and th ought he was entitled to every little thing. It seems as though each character was given two characteristics and the author made sure they stuck to them. They were not complex or relatable, and they became even more annoying as the book went on.
Also, I thought writing about both roads that the 5 characters could follow was interesting at first,but then I got confused about what happened in each one. Also the dialouge was confusing because when a new line of dialouge was shown, sometimes the same person was still talking.
The beginning of the book was great and entertaining but it really fell short of my expectations.
