*mild spoilers. Lesson #1 Please Refrain From Writing Characters Thinner Than Medical Dictionary Paper Evan is a prime example of a character of this nature. It has come to my attention that it is entirely possible that the author wrote a one-sentence description of Evan and then made sure that...
Walter's plan is to get through high school without drawing any attention to himself, and he's been doing a pretty good job so far. Falling for Naomi, the little sister of one of his friends, doesn't help with that goal. Nor does his policeman father being accused of racism. Suddenly Walter must fac...
Winter Town.. An upcoming indie film starring Michael Cera! .. Well, not really, but it should be! I really enjoyed this book, and I'm a little surprised that I've literally never heard of it before.. More people should read this!With a mixture of prose, art, and comics, this book tells the awesome ...
In and of itself I would've given the novel merely two stars. I gave the third star for the illustrations and their fitting integration into the book. Either way, I wasn't impressed by the style of writing, plot or characterization. Overall, "Winter Town" fell so flat for me, I was actually relieved...

Evan and Lucy grew up together, until Lucy's parents got divorced...

They still see each other once a year during Christmas vacation when she comes back to stay with her father, but in the la...
I got this book at the library so on the spine of the book it reads YA FIC EMO. Okay, it's for the author's name but I thought it summed the book up nicely. Evan and Lucy are seniors in high school and have been best friends their whole lives. Unfortunately, Lucy's parents divorced when she was twel...
Winter Town is not like any other book I have read. It was a quick, fun read and the best word to describe it is quirky. If Stephen Emond's other book is anything like this one I will have to check it out.Stephen Emond's writing and illustrations are the two best things about this book. The writi...
