About this listen

Three years ago, Bear McKenna’s mother took off for parts unknown with her new boyfriend, leaving Bear to raise his six-year-old brother Tyson, aka the Kid. Somehow they’ve muddled through, but since he’s totally devoted to the Kid, Bear isn’t actually doing much living. With a few exceptions, he’s retreated from the world, and he’s mostly okay with that - until Otter comes home.

Otter is Bear’s best friend’s older brother, and as they’ve done for their whole lives, Bear and Otter crash and collide in ways neither expect. This time, though, there’s nowhere to run from the depth of emotion between them. Bear still believes his place is as the Kid’s guardian, but he can’t help thinking there could be something more for him in the world ... something or someone.

Good but not great

I listened to this book right after House in the Cerulean Sea by the same author. I expected the same magic but no, this book is more a predictable formula romance drama. Everybody gets hurt all the time and nobody is honest and its the same characters going in circles. It has its charms. Kid is awesome, and sometimes too grownup for a child. Bear is sometimes annoying and I wish he causes less drama although he does have a reason for the way he is. The best part of the book is Kid and Bear's relationship. One note for the author: No need to repeatedly narrate flashbacks. We get what happened and unless there is a new perspective, there is no need to to repeat the same events every time a new character finds out.
