I had to fulfil my destiny, step out on the road of life, take the plunge. Whatever happened I couldn't become an old man with sagging breasts in old-fashioned white undies, lying beached in a hospital bed moaning about his life. I got out my magic horse and I made a pact with it then and there. If I wanted to be a writer then I should write. If I didn't like the relationships I had with people then I should try to change them, or form new ones. And I sealed it with a kiss on his brave, unwrinkled forehead.
So begins David's road to adulthood - his encounters with girls, his parents, friends, school and cancer. He's caught in a dispute between his dead friend's parents and the doctors who've just treated him. He's writing poetry that rhymes, his gang isn't talking to him, and everyone else is treating him like royalty. But then he's got the pact with his magic horse.

Journal Entry 2 by cosmic-gin from Wagga Wagga, New South Wales Australia on Tuesday, September 19, 2006
On it's way to RockDg as part of an Aussie BookRelay. Enjoy :)
Arrived today - cheers!
This is a coming of age novel told from the perspective of a boy who has a rough time getting there. While I wasn't entirely convinced with the 'voice' of the novel, I felt that the experiences and feelings of the characters rang true.
