Loading... Heft: A Novelby Liz Moore
I didn't want to finish this book. After the first 50 pages, I didn't even want to be reading it. But, the story held on to me and the development of the characters continued to keep me turning pages. Hopeful, sad, insightful.

( ) librarian1204 | Apr 3, 2013 | Wow. This book sucked me in from the first few pages. You should read this. ( ) jnorath | Apr 2, 2013 | Heft was full of endearing characters. Liz Moore made them feel so real; nothing about their feelings or actions felt artificial or forced. The relationship between Arthur and Yolanda was my favorite. The tireless chronicle of Kel’s experience in high school, while realistic, dragged on a bit too long though. However, overall, the story was a quick read. From the book’s summary, I had expected that Arthur and Kel would interact more, but that wasn’t the case at all, which was a tad disappointing. (  ) Samchan | Mar 31, 2013 |
 The writing is quirky, sometimes to a fault, yet original . . . Moore’s second novel wears its few kinks well Only a hardhearted reader will remain immune to Kel’s troubled charm. Moore's lovely novel (after The Words of Every Song) is about overcoming shame and loneliness and learning to connect. It is life-affirming but never sappy.
