Book Reviews of Boy's Life
Book Review: In my Top 5
Summary: 5 Stars
It breaks my heart that I can never read "Boy's Life" for the first time again. I will revisit it when I've sufficiently forgotten the details, but those late nights spent in lamplight thinking "just one more chapter" are what we all live for, and this one delivers exactly that. Reading this book reminds you just what it was like to see the world and think as a child does in a way you have all but forgotten. This accidental find turned out to be an exalted gem in my library. Thank you, Robert McCammon.
