Run for the Hills by Kevin Wilson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
There’s something magical in Wilson’s ability to tell a story. His characters are a little bit off, but they are so lovable, so real and so memorable. He then takes these characters and puts them in interesting situations. The dialogue is memorable, jumps off the page and fills you with joy even during a tragic scene.
I love reading his novels and Run for the Hills is one of my favorites. I loved all the characters in this story, especially Mad and Rube. The yearning for belonging and family and finding a sense of grounding is at the root of this beautiful story.
And of course life is never what we want it to be, it’s always both less and more. As in all his novels, Wilson makes you fall in love with his characters.
