Description
Robyn Schneider's The Beginning of Everything is a witty and heart-wrenching teen novel that explores the complexities of identity and relationships. After a series of setbacks, Varsity tennis captain Ezra Faulkner finds himself at a crossroads, where his expectations are challenged by an unpredictable new girl named Cassidy Thorpe. As Ezra navigates this uncertain terrain, Schneider skillfully infuses familiar stereotypes with depth, creating characters who can trade barbs and witty banter. The result is a refreshing contemporary take on the coming-of-age novel, one that delves into the difficulties of playing the part people expect and finding new beginnings in unexpected places. This story is a poignant exploration of how life's abrupt endings can lead to fresh starts, and how it takes courage to forge one's own path.
