Point of Retreat is a follow-up novel to SLAMMED and told from Will’s point of view. I’ve made one clear-cut decision after reading these books – every argument, fight, difference of opinion, lovers’ spat and squabble … should be resolved using A POETRY SLAM! In Point of Retreat, the issues Lake and Will face seem even more insurmountable given their age and responsibilities. Layken and Will survive yet another loss – quickly becoming parents to their brothers, Kel and Caulder. The two young boys (and a neighborhood friend) add another layer to the already rich story and teach the TEACHER a great lesson about bullying. I butterflying LOVED IT!! So if you’re like me, and shy away from stories with more angst than anyone person could handle – do not fear, Colleen Hoover delivers another beautiful story.
Remember, BOYS are just BETTER in BOOKS!!!!
And I’m in love with these fictional characters, Layken and Will!
