The Searcher
by Tana French

book cover


This is an excellent start to a new series by Tana French. The two main characters: mysterious teenager Trey Reddy and retired, emotionally scared Cal Hooper are especially appealing. At first Cal doesn't know what to make of Trey. He isn't even certain if she is male or female. She dresses in androgenous clothes and reveals nothing about her life. All he knows is Trey is persistent. Once she learns he was a detective, she is determined to enlist Cal's help in finding her beloved older brother, one of the few people in Trey's life who has shown her kindness. The novel shows the insularity of rural Irish life where villagers close ranks even when something very bad has occurred. This is a wonderful mystery which slowly develops the friendship and trust between Trey, whose home life is blighted by a mother who can barely cope and an absent, ner'do-well father. The ending and the reasons for the "murder" are beyond tragic. The prose is poetic and fitting for the lyricism of the Irish countryside.

Bad Boy: A Memoir – A Classic and Unforgettable Coming-of-Age Story for Young Adults About 1940s Harlem

book cover


Walter Dean Myers had a way of writing this story to make you feel everything. At least for me his story held a sort of nostalgia, for the recklessness of being a kid with the knowledge that the only people you had to answer to being your parents. Then as he ages you remember those emotions in tandem with him, the feeling of being lost, of losing the confidence you once held because now you understand your different, of not being able to hide. It was written in a way where you felt both empathetic to him and yourself because you can see yourself in Walter Dean Myers, even if your lives had been drastically different, it's the emotion that you remember. From childhood invincibility to the warm feeling of recognition as an adult. The scope of this book is amazing.
