Many thanks to Susan at Top2Bottom Reviews for her 5-kisses review of Wrestling Demons. Her take on the book has a kind of poetic beauty to it, which I quite like:
This story demonstrates how pettiness, envy, purposeful indifference, and bigotry can erode all that is good within the human spirit. Yet, this tale also shows the powers of love, friendship, and acceptance, and how these things can lift a man to stand on his own, even against the whole world.
Her review is detailed and perceptive, and I love the conclusion she comes to:
Long story short (too late!), Wrestling Demons is a realistic, compelling tale about two boys who learn some harsh truths about the world and their own community, but also learn some beautiful things about the nature of love. Mystery and crime buffs will also enjoy solving the case along with our state troopers. Highly recommended.
Thanks, Susan, and thanks to Top2Bottom Reviews for taking the time to write about Wrestling Demons.
Wrestling Demons is available in paperback and e-book.
