[Katherine Williams · Rating 5 out of 5]

Teenager Sam, feels like a fish out of water when he's exposed to the glittery life of Connecticut's Gold Coast at a Greenwich private school where his mother takes a job as a teacher, and he becomes a student. He'd learned the craft of carpentry from his father and until now that is where he believed his future would take him. This story told through the lens of a young carpenter is an interesting and unusual take on teenage angst and self discovery. Bravo!

This is a good book for having been self published by the author. Set in Connecticut many off the locations and issues were very familiar. Kind of a no nonsense way of writing that makes it an easy read….and if you have any connection to AA or the habit that makes AA make sense this book is for you.
