Last Stop This Town by David H. Steinberg


Earlier this week I was contacted by the awesome David H. Steinberg to review his book Last Stop This Town.  Who is David H. Steinberg? Well, he just so happens to be the awesome writer of  American Pie 2, Slackers, and Puss In Boots (and this is just naming a few)

I'll admit that I have an unusual sense of humor, and Slackers is one of my favorite movies..(remember Cool Ethan and his Angela hair doll)

Ok, now on the the review....

Last Stop This Town is about the last weekend before High School Graduation for 4 seniors -Dylan, Noah, Pike, and Walker. Growing up in a boring suburb town in Connecticut, they decide to make their last weekend eventful and memorable by going to a rave in NYC. Little did they know what was in store on the journey to get to the rave.

Last Stop This Town took me right back to high school, I loved going to raves and had a few interesting weekends myself.   I really enjoyed this coming of age book, it was well written and the characters were very interesting. This was a quick read that kept my interest through out the entire book. The adventures that these four guys had were humorous and entertaining.  Last Stop This Town does contain strong language, drinking, drugs, and sexual situations which makes it  more for the mature young adult crowd, specifically male. However, female YA and adults will love it too.

5 out of 5 stars 

I was honored to receive a e-book copy of Last Stop This Town via David H. Steinberg in exchange for an honest review.



Here is the blurb via Goodreads

"The debut novel from "American Pie" series screenwriter David H. Steinberg. It's the last weekend before high school graduation, and as they prepare to go their separate ways, four life-long friends spend a wild and raucous night in New York City that forces them to face their fear of growing up... and growing apart.

West Hartford, Connecticut. Growing up in the suburbs is a mind-numbingly boring experience for most teenagers, and high school seniors Dylan, Noah, Pike, and Walker are no exception. They spend their days testing how fast they can drive on the local residential streets, bribing homeless dudes to buy them beer, and attending crappy house parties. So when Dylan proposes that they spend their last weekend of high school in New York City attending an underground rave, the guys are ready to make some serious memories.

In New York, though, the guys have run-ins with a drug dealer with a penchant for fire extinguishers, a Chinese restaurant owner with a score to settle, an Albanian street gang, con men, hookers, performance artists, and a gaggle of hot, degenerate, rich girls. Over the course of one incredible night, their outrageous journey gives the guys a bonding experience they'll never forget, as they learn that part of growing up means they're going to have to face their futures on their own.

(Parental advisory: Contains strong language, drinking, drugs, and sexual situations, all involving teens.)"
