The Asher Trilogy #2
Asher's Shot
After uncovering the truth about his parents’ divorce and his brother’s death, fifteen-year-old Asher Price is ready for a shot at happiness. Armed with a Canon camera borrowed from his nutty neighbor, a date to homecoming, and revitalized relationships with family and friends, Asher’s on the right track. Even though Asher’s black-and-white view of the world has shifted to color, he still believes the only way to protect the people he loves is by keeping their secrets. His candid pictures capture the truth, but what if his success as a photographer requires exposing an enemy? In the end, Asher discovers protecting the people he loves can have devastating consequences, and his only shot at happiness involves revealing secrets of his own.

This was a remarkable coming of age book.
Asher is only 14 years old and he already is experiencing life in a rough dysfunctional way, his family are not the best, his parents aren't the best role models either and he's also struggling coming to terms with his sexuality.
I am going to warn you that it speaks of rape in this novel but its vital to the storyline and not just 'plonked in there' to make it dark, it really is vital to the book.
Elizabeth Wheeler has done a remarkable job in making this stand out as oh so real.
Asher lives his life through his camera lens. Its his coping mechanism I felt.
If you look at the book cover you can see his dispair.
If you you are looking for a book that gives you a rollercoaster of an emotional ride, look no further.
I would like to thank Bold Strokes Books, Inc. via Net Galley for the chance in allowing me to read and review this great book

The second book in a planned trilogy, Asher's Shot can be read as a stand alone novel. Asher is a confused teen dealing with a lot of life stressors. His parents are divorced and not communicating, his brother has just died and he isn't quite sure who he might like. He spends his time taking pictures and staying on the edges of life - not really trying to fit in. As the book continues, readers find out that Asher was in the middle of a momentary experimentation with another boy when his brother died and this has lead to some of his sexual confusion (readers familiar with the first book in the series will already know this). As the book continues, Asher strives to figure out what he wants in life and if he is willing to go against the societal norms.
