Pure Sunshine

by Brian James

A spellbinding trip of a novel about three friend breaking apart in their quest to stave off boredom and sameness.
It's not about the drugs. It's not about the girls or the fights or the fading streetlights. It's about two nights that weren't going to be different from the rest, but then took a turn. It's about trying to find out who you are and who your real friends are. It's about everything being the same, the same, the same. It's about nothing being the same again. It's about Brendon, WIll, and Kevin -- three friends on different paths -- and the weekend that put them to the test.

Reviews

Last year I read Perfect World by Brian James. And it changed my life. So I eagerly have been hunting down some of his other novels. Unfortunately Pure Sunshine disappointed. Maybe I just had my standards to high. The story was easy enough to get into and it had me turning pages at a reasonable pace right to the very end. But it didn't really have a point or some greater story. It was like coming in at the middle of a show watching fifteen minutes and then leaving so you miss the ending. You're able to immerse yourself for the time being but never really get the whole story. Disappointing effort.
