The Long Way Home - Andrew Klavan Book Review


Sometimes you have to go home to find out who you really are.
Charlie West went to bed one night an ordinary high-school student. He woke up a hunted man. Terrorists are trying to kill him. The police want to arrest him for the stabbing death of his best friend. He doesn't know whose side he's on or who he can trust. With his pursuers closing in on every side, Charlie makes his way back to his hometown to find some answers. There, holed up in an abandoned mansion, he's joined by his friends in a desperate attempt to discover the truth about a murder he can't remember-and the love he can never forget. (From Amazon.com) 

Klavan wrote a great continuation! Though I don’t think this book had as much action in it compared to ‘The Last Thing I Remember’ but it was still an edge-of –your-seat sort of book.
There were so many parts in this book that I liked, it’s hard not to spill them all right now!
But I will say that Charlie, Klavan’s main character, is way cool! There were times while reading this book Klavan, through Charlie, would make these really great points that had me setting the book aside just so I could mull it over. And to me that is what makes a book. When you learn something from a book that's worthwhile or sometimes you even learn something about yourself, that is what I call a good book.
And there were other times where Charlie’s friends had me practically rolling with laughter! Yeah I think his friends are awesome! Haha! I think my mom thought I was a little crazy laughing hysterically into the book! :-P
So many things became clear for Charlie in this book. He realized what he was fighting for, and a true deeper meaning came into play. I can’t wait to see what the next book will hold! Though it might be a while before I get it from the library.
Overall really great book! And so far really cool series!
