review 1: I received a copy of this book in the goodreads giveaway. I thought the author did a fantastic job. The story of a 16 yr. old boy and an elderly man is not just a story about a physical journey but an emotional journey as well. The two of them met at a time in their lives that they really needed one another. The became the best of friends as one's life nears the end while the other's life is really just beginning. It was a wonderful journey. I loved this book and would recommend it to any adult or older teen. I thought it would be alright for my younger teens but after reading it realized that there is one chapter that is really not all that appropriate for younger teens. I can't wait to read more written by this author.
review 2: Alex, the disagreeable... more, friendless teenager who is the main character in Cadillac Chronicles captured my attention from the first page, and held onto it til the end, capturing my heart along the way. There is a road trip, a beautiful girl, a fantastic, unexpected friendship, trouble with parents, along with a potent dose of racism and homophobia. Lester, the elderly man who befriends Alex, is a powerhouse, a powerful, bracing voice, making me wish all teenagers could have such a friend. A really fine book. less
