DOWNRIVER

Summary: Downriver: Must Read!
Review: Will Hobbs is well known for his wonderful novels that use nature, and Downriver is no exception. This book struck a chord with me due to its nature setting. Any nature fan best check this out. Jessie, the main character, is an intriguing one. She is sent to a youth camp for wayward children after flipping a car, and after her mother's death. Her father seems to be the ultimate evil to her throughout the book for sending her there. This hate for her father interested me and kept be reading. She joins a group with 7 other kids: Adam, Pug, Star, Troy, Rita, Heather, and Freddy. These characters offered a range of emotions and were quite diverse in their own right. Troy and Freddy emerged as two major leaders amongst them, while their adult guide Al seemed to lay back. After various tasks they must complete (I don't want to give much away) they arrive at the decision to run the San Juan River with Al, or steal the rafts and run The Colorado. Ultimately, they steal the rafts and run the Colorado. The depth of the characters fascinated me, in addition to how they play in each other's lives. On the River, alliances are formed, enemies are made and hearts are broken. This book was truly a great read, and a must for anyone even remotely interested in nature. The characters fascinated me and I am sure they will fascinate you as well. I loved the experience of Downriver and I definitely recommend it to anyone: I solid five stars.
