Winter 2006 Review

Jason Bock is a young boy searching for someone to care. When all else failed, Jason worshiped his town's water tower. His father forced him to go to mass every Sunday, while his mom was too obsessed with his health. Nothing Jason wanted ever came to him easily. He searches for answers until one day he decides to make something of his life. He decides to worship the water tower in his town, and soon, many of his friends decide to as well. It becomes a power and an addiction of many. Jason and his friends are becoming out of control, and he must find a way out, before everything he has known is gone.

I felt the book was very far-fetched, but well written. At times I found myself laughing at the book, as it became so real. People of all ages wanting to find a place in their life would relate this book. If you have a religion, I wouldn't recommend reading the book. However, it would be a good read if you like extreme fiction. I also found many things about the book to be rather peculiar. For example, the fact that Jason and his friends chose a water tower to worship. I felt it was a cry for desperation. Overall, I thought the book was okay.
