Toughing It

I read the German version of the book about a year ago and I liked it because you are confronted with problems our society uses to ignoring, such as alcoholism, teenagers who have difficulty with their (step-)parents due to divorces or don't even know their fathers. After his brother's death, Shawn (called Tuff) swears to take revenge on the murderer and is completely despaired for he has lost the most important person in his life. When he gets to know the man his mother regards as his biological father, that man convinces him that it would make no sense to lose control and Shawn realizes his life has to be continued without his brother Dillon.

Toughing It is a book about adolescent anger and the feelings of betrayal. When his brother is senslessly murdured by an unknown killer in front of him, Tuff sets out to find his killer. This book explores the feelings of anger, and is a touching real fiction book. Five stars is a small tribute to this great book!

Toughing It is about his struggle to accept his brother's death and his lust to track down the killer. Tuff finds that nothing is to be gained by killing the killer. This book is an action-packed exploration of teenage anger and coping with grief. Toughing It overflows with emotion. It deserves many more than five stars. I recomend this book for people 13+ because of severe language. Toughing It is an aweome book.

The book started out by 2 brothers dirt biking through the mountain. There names were Dillion and Tuff. Dillion was shot in the back of the head. The cops came and the found no clues. The only thing they knew is that someone put a trap. When somone would go by it the gun would fire. The cops gave up. They left it unsolved. Tuff was determined to find the killer. Tuffs mother said to go to his father for help. The have been seperated. Tuff was searching for a guy named Penn Lepo. He was supposely Tuff's father. Tuff found Penn and he agreed to help. Tuff and Penn had a lot of exciting problems while trying to solve the murder. I liked the book becuse it kept me reading to solve the mystery. The book had a lots of non stop action going on. I also like how the book started out with one of the most importantand exciting parts first. I would like to read more books by this author because it was a cool mystery.
