Such beautiful book that embraces the innocence and sadness of growing up. Jake Baker reflects on a memorable summer where he explores the myths and legends of his hometown with his Uncle Calvin and his new friends. It has a vulnerability and frankness to it.
There is an awkwardness of a kid trying to figure who he is and understanding the adults in his life. The book have Goonies, Stand By Me, Sandlot vibes, only much darker. A quirky, heartfelt novel about love, loss, family, and friends.
There are some authors who can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned and Jacqueline Woodson is one of those authors.
Such an amazing, brilliant book! Jacqueline Woodson has the ability of telling a lifetime's worth of emotions and experiences in 300 or less pages. It is riveting and soul stirring. Red at the Bone was about loss and healing on many levels. I was moved to the depths of my soul.
This book is a true gem!

It was fun, it was charming, it was great! So, so, great!
