Friday Review - February 18, 2017

Setting Free the Kites by Alex George
Publication Date - February 21, 2017
4 stars



A coming of age story following two teenage boys during a couple years of their friendship, this novel explores grief, love and intense friendship.  Robert is the son of an amusement park owner and is more of the cautious worrier than Nathan, who just wants to climb the highest heights and fly.  I thought this was a beautifully written novel and even when events somewhat suspended belief, it was immensely readable.  I look forward to reading more from this author and I will definitely check out his first book.  I received this book from the Goodreads First Reads program in exchange for an honest review.
