I'd met the author on Instagram- we were following each other when she made the announcement of her book and I jumped at the opportunity to read it. Today's book is titled: Seeking Havok Havok is an 18 year old honors high school student who has the misfortune of being the daughter of a stripper, prostitute and drug addict. Never having known a father or anything other than a life of poverty, Havok feels her mother needs her loyalty and support. Because of her mother's seedy lifestyle, Havok has only one true friend to lean on with her only means of escape in dreams of attending college and listening to a radio DJ named Fade. I love a good coming of age novel and Lila Felix is moving up there with the very best. The book was riveting and the characters were well developed. They could easily have been the next door neighbor or people around the corner. Her name also exemplifies the dark, unkempt life in which she has had the misfortune to be born into. The story is her struggle to provide support for a neglectful, unfeeling mother, yet not get caught up the the same lifestyle. Seeking Havoc was a great and fast read for me. It was visual, emotional and encouraging and a book I'd recommend to anyone. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Her life is just as messed up as her name.All she wanted was a friend---one that knew her and not her circumstances. She needed somewhere to call home. Hers was an open door for countless men looking for the services her mother offered them. She camouflaged herself against lockers and blackboards to avoid the stares and whispers at school. And then she found Cal...and Fade.Cal lives like Frankenstein, rising at night to work and just trying to make it until dawn. He avoids most relationships, afraid of the things he will be asked to do. He moonlights as Fade, a radio station DJ who spends hours counseling his peers on their troubles. It was all mundane until Jocelyn called the station.Cal and Havok pursue a friendship. Jocelyn and Fade pursue a relationship beyond the confines of the radio waves. But when Havok disappears, Cal will find that Havok has been guarding a lifetime worth of secrets. And when Fade and Jocelyn's all night phone conversations cease, he finds a link between them he never saw coming. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
