Drive

Summary: Couldn't put this one down...
Review: "Drive" can be summed up in one word: excellent. Though I found it entertaining for an adult, the story contains excellent lessons for a younger audience. Jens and Daniel confront real world problems and face relationship issues recognizable to any teen.

The story is well-paced and moves along while still delivering all the important details -- at times it almost feels as though the reader is riding along in the truck with the boys.

"Drive" reminds me a great deal of S.E. Hinton's best work. I strongly recommend it to anyone.

Summary: Diana Wieler does it again
Review: Already available in Canada, Diana Wieler's latest book offers another gripping and immediate story. This time, a roadtrip with two brothers, very different people, trying to work towards a common goal, and learning a lot about themselves and each other into the bargain. This author has a magic gift when it comes to portraying people--Jens and his brother are so real that they take you along with them for the drive. I would recommend this book for all ages.
