Rachel Reviews: Lakefront Wolves by Joseph Deegan
Meet Finn. He's an 18 year old kid who has potential. He's bright with great school scores and he's also an athlete, a footballer of some prowess. He has it all going for him, it would seem, and yet, he's determined to send what could be a well-planned, stable existence firmly off the rails. He drinks, he smokes, he takes drugs, he has violent tendencies and he's in danger of losing not only his mind but all that he holds dear.

Perfect moment
Hi Tim, An Appalachian poet sounds dreamy, rustic and a perfect place to create. newly subscribed. Perhaps this is why mail takes s long to reach me in Sweden, lol.
It was probably something really important too... 👏👏👏 Nicely done
Beautiful in its simplicity
