Savages

This one had popped up on my radar back when I started seeing trailers for the movie version. I never did see the movie but I've read two other books by this author (The Death and Life of Bobby Z, California Fire & Life) and really liked them. So I snagged this one out of the local library and ended up polishing it off in just three days. It's written in a very cool, slangy, breezy style... it's an effortless, summer read. I thought the characters were really cool and just thought the story and writing were a lot of fun. I gotta read more by this author.
