Book Reviews of Honky

Book Review: A pretty damn good book.
Summary: 4 Stars

I was assigned to read this by my High School teacher in summer.

This book really shows the real life of kids unlike the other books I've read. This story lacks a main focus though, it's mainly about a kid's life from almost start to around the age of a teen.

This book was interesting to read. I'd like to give out details but, I'm afraid I might spoil it for you all. :(
But, the ending wasn't what I was expecting, so that was kind of a letdown.

Great book, get it and read it!
