Thoughts and Themes: I don’t recall reading any other books by this author but I am familiar with the books. ReviewĬS: Addiction, Suicide Attempt, Sexist comments But when the brother he loves so much becomes more and more withdrawn, and escalates to stealing money and ditching school, Trace realizes some secrets cannot be kept if we ever hope to heal. Afraid of further fracturing his family, Trace begins to cover for Will who, struggling with addiction to pain medication, becomes someone Trace doesn’t recognize.
Now, sixteen months later, their family is still living under the weight of the incident, that left Will with a facial tic, depression, and an anger he cannot always control, culminating in their parents’ divorce. But when Will was knocked out cold during a football game, resulting in a brain injury–everything changed.
It was Will who taught Trace to ride a bike, would watch sports on TV with him, and cheer him on at little league. Twelve-year-old Trace Reynolds has always looked up to his brother, mostly because Will, who’s five years older, has never looked down on him.
