The Best Man: 06/20/17
The Best Man by Richard Peck is bookended by two weddings, one where he's forced to be ring bearer and one where he is the best man. The bulk of the book, though, is the time between the ceremonies. I had a hard time getting into this book. Archer, the protagonist, spends half the book whining. He didn't like the wedding. He doesn't like his school. And then out the blue he realizes that his beloved uncle is gay. And the whole book changes gear and becomes the book that's promised in the blurb. Three stars Comments (0) |
