L.A. Holly has written a book with characters so real, I feel like I know them. I laughed out loud at several details, and cried at particularly touching times. Reg, Gib, Lori Ann and their families come alive on these pages, and there are significant lessons to be learned as well.

The author has such depth with description and emotion. The characters came to life for me. I would recommend this book to all audiences. A true story about a boy’s childhood upbringing with it’s happy and extremely sad happenings. Made me smile and cry at times…..the book is a short quick read. You will be glad you took the time to read this.

What a great read! It will make you smile, make you laugh, make you cry and most definitely make you do some soul searching regarding your life. I found myself going back to my own childhood for the entire book! It is truly remarkable how cleverly the author does this as he guides you through the preacher’s kid’s own life. I believe anyone that is lucky enough to read it will appreciate just how good it is.

This was a wonderful read. Good for adults and kids. Set in the early 1970’s it’s about a boy’s trials and comic situations in a small rural community in Texas. Very well written and well worth every penny. I can’t wait for more from this author!!!!!!!!
