I read 8 books this month and only really loved one of them. I started two other novels and stopped at 50 and 80 pages, just couldn't continue. Books by my favorite authors didn't make the short list of the "loved" books. It was a surprising month.
Golden Boy is the debut novel from Abigail Tarttelin. Max Walker is a golden boy. Attractive, intelligent, and athletic, he’s the perfect son, the perfect friend, a wonderful big brother and the perfect crush for the girls in his school. Everyone loves him. Max has a secret that sets him apart from everyone, he's intersex. The novel is beautifully written and very hard to put down. Tarttelin deals with a difficult subject and the circumstances of the story with care and insight.
