Funny How Things Change

Funny How Things Change Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Remy Walker has it all: he found the love of his life at home in crumbling little Dwyer, West Virginia, deep in his beloved Appalachian Mountains where his family settled more than one hundred and sixty years ago. But at seventeen, youre not supposed to already be where you want to be, right? Youve got a whole world to make your way through, and you start by leaving your dead-end town. Like his girlfriend, Lisa. Lisas going away to college. If Remy goes with her, it would be the start of everything they ever dreamed of. So when a fascinating young artist from out of state shows Remy his home through new eyes, why is he suddenly questioning his future?

The author vividly depicts a rich and beautiful place in this powerful novel about a young man who, over the course of a summer, learns how much he has to give up for a girl, and how much he needs to give up for a mountain.

About the Author
