The 1st I ever read and still one of my favorites.
This was the first Stephen King novel that I ever read. I was proably in fifth or sixth grade, and my brother had been reading Stephen King books for years. I picked up his copy of Christine that he had checked out of the library and started reading. I was hooked and for a long time I was current with everything that SK wrote.

Christine is still a favorite of mine.

Boy fall sin love with possessed car. Possessed car gives boy confidence and his life gets better. Car gets jealous of boys relationships (all of them) and starts to make life much worse then it was to begin with.

I still want 58 Plymouth Fury... White over Red... cool vanity plate.

Going Places by Kathryn Beria

Four Stars

This story is about a teenage boy trying to find himself. Hudson was going places according to his teacher. When life throws off Hudson balance he seems to stop wanting to go places. School became unnecessary and helping others a priority. I’m not a boy so I don’t completely understand what he was going through. But I did understand not knowing what your future would hold and not finding confidence within yourself. His relationship with Fritzy was hilarious and true. She did give him sweet words or half truths. I didn’t like Love all that much. Overall the author did good and I was excited to be in the mind of a more realistic teenage boy on the journey of maturity.
