Fabulous! I was so excited to check out the latest releases of this new author. Although I didn't focus on the usual reading topic, I really enjoyed this YA novel and wanted to speed it up and see what happened next at every turn.
I loved how Ross initially developed his character from the cliched kind of young adult stereotypes (athletes, fans, loneliness, etc.) As the protagonist learns more about each and, as a result, perspective, the reader gains a broader perspective. As the stakes for a character increase, warnings come to mind about how harmful stereotypes can be.
The story manages to provide a few cool turns as the promised ski trip plan meets the test of survival. I really like how the author has incorporated core themes like survivor skills, beliefs, and animal justice/abuse into the story of this tested group of friends in ways they didn't expect. rice field.
The characters and their stories create a compelling case for staying open-minded and looking beyond appearances and stereotypes when communicating with others in your circle. Readers remind you that you don't really know what other people are experiencing.
I can't wait to see what Ross writes next! This was a great read, and I was made an unexpected prompt to review social themes and use perspective, patience, and empathy in our relationships!
It definitely happened on a ski weekend. When I stopped reading for dinner on Saturday, I was excited to get back to reading to see what happened next!
The author well presented different types of teenagers and they played well with each other. Plus the hero... I love this dog!
I live in California, and on my way to the mountains, I pass areas where books are released frequently. I got an emergency kit for my car - I should have had it all the time!
I don't usually read YA novels. I am an old man, my child is a middle-aged adult, and my grandchildren have not yet reached a young age. But I'm glad I got SKI WEEKEND. It's a true nail read and time with plenty of twisting and spinning like the double black diamond ski track. You might get another YA novel to read. I hope Rectok author Ross Ross writes more novels in the future.
What a wonderful read! The book was so great that I drank it once. I really hope someone will make a movie out of it. The author is a great writer. Every word you write has a purpose, not just to fill the page. All the characters look complex and realistic. The author's clever scene shooting puts you right in the middle of the action. Learning some new survival skills was also a really nice bonus. I highly recommend it!
This was the perfect book for me because I love good survival stories (and I also love dogs). A thrilling trailer, completed over the weekend. On a ski trip, six teens (and dog heroes) find themselves trapped in a snowstorm and must fight to survive. A horrifying scenario explained by Rektot with realistic visions - I sometimes felt like I was living in a car drama with six teenagers. As time changes for a few days, the characters discuss topics that are close to young hearts - religion, sex, anorexia, and I liked their honest and frank opinions on these topics (which he probably is). Favorite part of the book). The setting was realistic, but the characters were also very reliable, and Rektok really nailed the teenage vibe. Dialogue, friendship, and irrational teenage decisions are all very real. I highly recommend it.
I bought two of these books for my twin daughter. I highly recommend it. I got the book because our family is skiing in the Sierra which is where the story takes place. I finished it three nights. This well-written thriller caught my eye and I was able to see and feel almost every scene. After reading Ross' book, make sure you're more prepared the next time you're driving through a storm and going skiing!
