Summary: The Words Make the Book
Review: This is truly a great, awsome book; one of the best I've ever read! From the day I started it, to the day I finished, it was soooo hard to put it down. I loved it. Brooks makes you feel like you are watching the whole thing. Every scene, every sentence made a picture in my mind. I recommend you read this book. It takes you there, but it is still the real world you live in. Read it and you won't be disappointed.

Summary: Basketball, Bigotry & Boyhood!
Review: This novel by Bruce Brooks does give us an accurate portrayal of two young boys in 1960's North Carolina, struggling through some of the burdens of life. The narrator Jerome seems a bit too-good-to-be-true on more than one occasion and the character Bix seems flat at other times. Some of the interest is lost immediately when the author reveals the ending at the beginning. Overall, though, it was enough to keep reading through the whole book. (Also, to boot, there are some very interesting parallels to Hamlet, too.)
