review 1: It's Christmas time for D and Jack and Jack is pressuring D to contact his sister. I loved this little look into the everyday part of their relationship. D is so cute struggling to deal with being reintroduced to his family and learning how to be "normal" again. Or at least as normal as D is ever going to be. Watching D lean on Jack to help him through things is so great. He's really growing as a person. I loved Jesse's attitude as well. Quite a little bit of backbone in there for someone stuck dealing with bullies. Gives me faith he'll get through it all right. Growly D wanting to protect his nephew and take the bullies out back was just plain adorable. Almost wish Jack had let him do it. All in all a great bonus Christmas story about reconnecting with family a... morend the pressures of being a teenager.
review 2: I love seeing the topic of bullying addressed. I was in family services and I can't tell you how many times a family in my caseload shared that one of their kids was going through bullying. I love that the point was made that it can be ordinary looking kids who can be bullies or bullied which means parents and teachers have to really pay attention.I also loved the holiday theme of family reunion in this one. D's nervousness had me chuckling a bit and his sister's stories about him as a boy were great.This was a nice segment while we wait for the next novel. less
