Critically acclaimed author David Joy, whose debut Where All Light Tends to Go was hailed as "a savagely moving novel that will likely become an important addition to the great body of southern literature" (The Huffington Post), returns to the mountains of North Carolina with a powerful story about the inescapable weight of the past. A combat veteran returned from war, Thad Broom can't leave the hardened world of Afghanistan behind, nor can he forgive himself for what he saw there. His mother, April, is haunted by her own demons, a secret trauma she has carried for years. Between them is Aiden McCall, loyal to both but unable to hold them together. Connected by bonds of circumstance and duty, friendship and love, these three lives are blown apart when Aiden and Thad witness the accidental death of their drug dealer and a riot of dope and cash drops in their laps. On a meth-fueled journey to nowhere, they will either find the grit to overcome the darkness or be consumed by it.Binding Type: Paperback

Solid sneakers—worth it on a good discount
Size: 9, Color: Vintage Indigo Canvas/Natural
These sneakers are solid overall. They look good and feel comfortable for everyday use, and the quality is what I’d expect from the brand.
One thing to note: if you have to walk a lot, they can start to feel less comfortable on the top of the foot (upper area). It’s not a dealbreaker, but you’ll notice it on longer days.
That said, they’re definitely worth it if you catch a really good discount.

Comfy but ouch!
Size: 11, Color: Stormcloud Canvas/Sleet, Size: 11, Color: Stormcloud Canvas/Sleet
Nice style that keeps its shape, comfy insoles, true to size. I got the grey color at size 11. However the back part of the shoe ripped into my skin. I had to wear band aides after the first day of walking during our vacation. So wear sock that cover the back ankle. Otherwise, I like these shoes.
