We All Fall Down - 9781983712609

Turning eighteen is an event that most teenagers find empowering. It represents a moment in life that tells the world "I'm an adult!" Mothers buzz around relishing in the bittersweetness of their children crossing over that imaginary line into independence while simultaneously smothering them with affection before they are forced to let them go. John Jacobs knew better than to expect such things on that seemingly beautiful May morning. Eighteen started off in a way that he can only think back on as a warning. A precursor of what's to come. Having a mentally ill mother in the seventies, a gay brother and a father who refused to acknowledge either, made the idea of college that much more confusing. However, a summer away with his best friends Roach and Mickey promised to shed a new and positive light on how one can always change their destiny. The fact that Rose was going was enough to push him out of the door and onto the road to Wimberley, TX. Only John was at a disadvantage, and wishful thinking only works when your life hasn't been based on a web of lies woven by the two people in the world you should trust most.
