Narrated by Kate Rudd, Nick Podehl, and Diana Steele. Over 6 million people have fallen in love with Wonder and Auggie Pullman, the ordinary boy with the extraordinary face, who inspired a movement to Choose Kind. August Pullman was born with a facial difference that, up until now, has prevented him from going to a mainstream school. Starting 5th grade at Beecher Prep, he wants nothing more than to be treated as an ordinary kid-but his new classmates can't get past Auggie's extraordinary face.

Ryan Quinn is good with his words. These are problems The Fall: A Novel is a breath-taking book in several areas. Ryan Quinn is good with his words

Ryan Quinn is good with his words. I liked the part he described Haile's observation of a broken-hearted Jamie when Jamie realized that the relationship he was in, was as good as over. This was not the only part. Ryan Quinn is good with his words.

Nestled in the Pennsylvania countryside, Florence University frames an idyllic college world, complete with cute coeds and handsome jocks ― not to mention plenty of booze and sex with virtually no responsibility. For three seniors approaching graduation, the vagaries of life have rarely been so terrifying. Film buff Ian is at a loss as to what to do with the rest of his life ― or what to do about the football player he has been fantasizing about. Haile is an accomplished classical musician, a veteran violinist who is taking a break from touring to finish her education, explore her dream of becoming a singer-songwriter, and escape her controlling mother. Casey is the handsome football star whose seemingly perfect existence masks an unsatisfactory love life and an inexplicable restlessness for something…more. Drawn together by their struggles for identity, the three students form a fateful friendship that will change the courses of their lives forever. Sexy, fast paced, and layered with intimate insight about life’s most formative years, The Fall is a compelling coming-of-age story about what happens when we are forced to confront who we are and who we want to become.
Reviews about The Fall: A Novel (7):
Thabel
The book alternates between different points of view of the three main characters. This keeps it moving at a very nice pace and although it may sound awkward, it isn’t and it’s very readable. If you only read a few pages at a time, this format provides perfect breaks.

The plot was unpredictable, yet engaging at first. Towards the middle it became more obvious as to the outcome, yet still provided some twists. Some of these twists were subtle, of which one was fairly major and I missed it and had to go back. Well worth the effort.

The author did an excellent job with descriptions of things and places, sometimes you felt like you were there. He wasn’t entirely consistent with taking the reader to the place the characters were, but he did a better job than many. The dialog represented a more masculine format (two of the main characters are male) by which I mean that the dialog was sparse and not effusive. One of the lessor characters, a dad, had the most taciturn conversations of all.

I loved the ending. Major and minor characters had neatly tied up story lines. Yet there is room for a sequel.

This book is a billed as an “unlikely” love story. I can see that. My only disappointment is that the sexy times were not very sexy. Don’t get me wrong – it’s not an “adult romance novel”, but it does need more spice in that department. It’s a story about college students, and their hookups are rather boring to my eyes. The M/M relationships are sterile and non-descriptive. The M/F relationships are better, but need spice.

I think this book is age appropriate for everyone that understands that people have relationships and non-graphic sex. Violence is kept to the football field. Probably less sex, innuendo, violence and adult language than the average prime time TV show.

I’m torn on my rating. It’s a solid four plus. It’s almost a five, but not quite because of the lack of “sexy” sexy times. I think I’ll give it a five because I really liked it.

This is the first book by this author. He has a second one out which I will definitely read. <b>I think it’s a book that is well worth reading. </b>

Symmetry is not something I think of as a literary parameter, but this book is archetypical of the idea. A typical metaphorical example is a Y in the road at the entrance to Florence University. One rutted dirt road leads to a burned-out church that figures significantly in the plot. The other leads to Florence University, an institution founded in the mid-twentieth century which has somehow acquired an architectural elegance comparable to my alma mater, a New England school founded in the eighteenth century. It dwells on male, but ignores female, homosexuality. The intense characterization fails to capture the casual intellectual camaraderie that I recall as a highlight of college.

The title is multi-entendre, referring to the season, the demise of illicit career ambitions, and resolution of parent-student aspiration disparity. It veers from the beauty of classical art to the banality of a locker-room drain clogged with the residue of initiation shaving.

The writing style is both compelling and confusing, with erratic changes in narrator delimited by pseudo-social media entries and screenplay scene descriptions. I frequently had trouble keeping track of who "I" referred to. The intimate scenes lacked intensity, told in an off-hand style.

It is a good read, but not one to be undertaken casually. There is a lot of intricate metaphor that needs to be considered carefully, such as one non-smoking father's habit of flicking a Zippo in the dark.

Before starting this book. I recommend looking at a painting, "The Wrath of Achilles", which can be found in Google images.

The title, of course, refers to the season of the year when much of the book's action takes place. But how many other meanings does it have - is this a double entendre, a triple? Not easy to say. Yes, at least one individual has fallen, but seems to have passed out of the story. What about the principal players - Ian, Haile, Casey. They seem to end up relatively intact.

In any case, this is a fine coming-of-age story. Since I worked with college-age students for 40 years, I'm a pushover for such stories - partly because they take me back to many fond and a few not-so-fond memories, and partly because I enjoy reading once again about all the complexities - sports, sex, academics, love, family, relationships, establishing life directions, facing disappointments and dilemmas - of the college years. And in many of these contemporary stories, a gay factor is thrown in, causing ever more opportunities for further angst.

I was interested in the progress of all three leading seniors. But Haile's story seemed particularly intriguing, and added a thought-provoking dimension that one doesn't always find in such novels. Her pursuit of music, and the difficulties she overcame, provided interesting scenes and reactions. The supporting players were perhaps neglected a bit, although Haile's mother proved to be the unrelenting Darth Vader character to the very end. I feel I got to know Haile, Ian, and Casey, but not as well as I would have liked - especially Ian and Casey.
