The Book of Joe (Jonathan Tropper)
From BookList, March 15, 2004
I enjoyed this book so much. Even though the story was not very original (it reminded me of Peyton Place, a book I read when I was 14), the description of smalltown USA was so realistic. I shouldn't say smalltown USA, small towns anywhere are the same. Everybody knows and minds everybody's business. I laughed a lot, e.g. when Joe decides to hang out with his nephew, and trespasses into an abandoned company campus to play paintball. I was very moved when Joe realizes his father was very proud of him, and even hung a poster of the Bush Falls movie on his bedroom door. And his friendship with Wayne is just beautiful.
