Book Review: "The Best of Friends" By Lucinda Berry

A myriad of complex issues are discussed in this powerful and moving new work by Lucinda Berry.

Topics such as gun violence, sexuality, drug use including adderall and add, and plenty of hopelessness.


Mothers of three teens are now suffering from the tragedy that came upon their boys. One is dead, the other is in a coma, with the third in fear of talking.


It begins with a party type atmosphere at Delta Tau House with Sawyer having drank too much for his own good.


Sawyer was a gifted photographer but all that was taken away in a moments notice upon being shot in the head.


Jacob has been accused of attempted suicide and now resides in a coma as he's officially been declared brain dead and his medical insurance won't cover his costs.


The question we all have is whether or not Jacob killed Sawyer before turning the gun on himself.


Caleb in the end has something significant to add to this hot mess and it's a shocker.
The entire ordeal was quite moving and hard to process but very well done.


Thank you to Lucinda, the pub, Netgalley, and Amazon Kindle for this ARC in exchange for this honest review.
