Michael Benzehabe

I bought this for myself, but I kept thinking how important it is for my younger sister to read this. Zonked Out covers all the important subjects we young people are already talking about, just at a higher lever, a level that provides options, and important insight.

A very entertaining read. Lots of humor, lots of plot twists. Really enjoyed the heart of this story. Lots of tender moments.… (altro)
