The last 50 pages or so were filled with silly plot twists, people with amazing memories of the most minor events that occurred 18 years prior and just a lot of far fetched story lines. In summary, HS star football players do stupid things, get away with most (not so far fetched), 3rd side of the triangle is left to pick up the pieces and still some how still holds a flame for the star QB. All a bit too much for me. ( ) The novel is about three young "orphans" Trey Don, John, and Cathy, who all live in Kersey, Texas. They become friends in sixth grade and their friendship and how it evolves as they go through life is the basis for the plot. I believe I would compare the three to tumbleweeds because none of them has any roots and they gather together just like tumbleweeds do. The three experience successes, sorrows and secrets both as individuals and as friends. As I read the book I was on an emotional roller coaster along with the characters. One of the characters would reach a high point and then just as quickly that high would descend just like riding in a car on a coaster track. Then I, along with that character or another, would climb that rail to the top only for another ride down. The novel was tense and kept me engaged, but the language and characters were both really disappointing. I felt Meacham's writing style is somewhat juvenile.
