Places Up Here

by C.A. Julal

It starts at a train station. Infatuated with the idea of finding himself, the nameless protagonist leaves the comfort of the suburbs for the promise of a new start. Hidden within towering buildings is a quaint little house with a red door. This is where he first meets Sara, a petite young woman with brown hair, amber eyes, and a fiery attitude. Together, they take on the world – one fearless adventure at a time.

"She may be daring, wild, ridiculous even, but maybe that’s what I need, a little ridiculous."

Places Up Here is a story about being young and the confusion that comes along with it. There is something attractive about escaping the mundane and starting anew in a different city. In C.A. Julal’s first novel, you realize that life starts the moment you want it to start - regardless of where in the world you are. This summer, begin an affair with Places Up Here. It’s a quick and lighthearted read that promises to leave you feeling everything that a great book ought to make you feel: all warm and fuzzy inside, and wanting more from the characters you've come to love.

The mystery of the character itself was very interesting. We never once got the name of the protagonist nor his physical description. The switch from past to present tense was perfectly placed in the story. Overall, a great read. A good blend of fiction and self-help.
