The Brothers Torres by Coert Voorhees
Brandon Sanchez
Summary
The book is about about a kid in high school named Frankie Torres Towers who lives in the shadows of his older brother who is better than him in mostly everything. His brother gets the girls and scholarships, is popular, and does whatever he wants without his parents bothering him. Frankie, on the other hand, has problems at school with a boy named Dalton, who is a rich kid whose parents own a tortilla company. Frankie's life becomes more miserable when Dalton gets the girl that Frankie likes. Things change for Frankie after an a incident in a golf park but is it for good or bad?
Critical Evaluation
This book is about karma and the different lifestyle a person can take. Frankie is a good kid and follows the rules but his brother pulls him into making crazy dumb decisions which end badly. His brother is gang affiliated and his lifestyle is way different from Frankie's, but Frankie is getting involved into his older brother lifestyle as well and he is seeing how his brother is bit by bit destroying himself.
I give this book a 10/10 because its very suspenseful and it makes you want to read more and more.And also it's very interesting because it's got action, suspense, love and more.
