Porchball
Porchball Michael Bronte
It was the Counterculture vs. the Establishment, and possibly the most memorable year in our history. Brownie made his own history in 1969: he smoked his first joint and got laid, both in the sun and the mud at Woodstock. He also enrolled at Alliance College, but didn’t anticipate getting tangled up in a drug distribution ring and trying to save himself and his best friend from disaster. Porchball is a story of loyalty, betrayal, and deception as the characters’ lives are funneled into a single situation where the only goal is to extricate themselves from mortal danger.

I love all the books in Shane Morton's Point Pleasant Holiday Series so I was excited to see this short story! Tad and Wally are complete opposites who've secretly been crushing on each other. The chemistry between them heats up the pages, and their story draws you in. Throughout the series, the author brings us into this town and this world, and we never want to leave. The Point Pleasant stories can be read as standalones, but once you start, you won't want to stop until you've read every one. I can't wait to see what comes next!
The concept of a murder mystery at a drag queen pageant is interesting and different to me. I will pick up this book by Shane K Morton just by looking at the cover, and reading the blurb.
