Download As PDF : When It All Falls Down Tanya Chris Books
Maybe Charlie should have waited until he graduated high school before coming out, because since that revelation there’s been a growing distance between him and his friends. Charlie’s tough, though. He doesn’t mind eating lunch alone or watching his former gang interact with their new best buddy. What he does mind is seeing Drew Lavoitt suffer the same fate. Drew didn’t come out. As far as he, or anyone else knows, he’s straight. What Drew did is accidentally hit and kill a little girl. Now the boy who was voted Most Popular, and who Charlie has maybe had a crush on since eighth grade, faces financial ruin, expulsion, and the fear that if he’s not everything, he’s not enough. Popularity, wealth, acclaim—these things are easily lost. In each other’s arms, Drew and Charlie find something that can’t be taken from them. Together the two build a foundation on which they can re-create their lives.
When It All Falls Down Tanya Chris Books
Charlie befriends the former most popular guy in school when a freak accident causes his fall from grace. Andrew is a single child of wealthy parents undergoing therapy and suddenly ostracized and lonely. Both are 18-year-olds about to graduate and go off to college. Chaz has a younger brother Noah and a step-father. Drew’s parents are at a loss as to how to help their son and walk a verbal minefield even trying to talk to him. Chaz is openly gay but Drew has dated girls. Both sets of parents are open and accepting wanting only what’s best for their sons. Noah is the bratty younger brother. Andrew may have his own car, a wide-screen TV, and every electronic device known to man but I doubt either of his parents have ever hugged him.Too many gay novels seem only a pretext to get to the make-out scenes equating sex with making love. This young couple truly care for one another’s well-being, a truer definition of love. As always I find vicarious sex scenes unnecessary and profanity crude and immature.

When It All Falls Down Tanya Chris Books Reviews
This story was absolutely wonderfully written! So heartbreaking, so sweet, new love, young love exploring themselves; it’s lovely! This is definitely an all time favorite now!
I was intrigued enough by the sample to go ahead and buy the book. The main characters both sang out to me thinking of aspects of each that reminded me of myself at that age. It was a very human story of need, compassion, and companionship, with lots of tender and steamy moments. I really enjoyed and will take a look at Tanya's other work.
I loved this book. Loved Charlie and Drew, and the "real" world of friends and family they lived in. I loved that there were no bad guys, just people who were flawed. This story made me happy, even though the thread that moves through it with the accident is heartbreaking all around. Highly recommended.
I don't read a lot of romance, but I read a lot of YA and I've followed Chris on Twitter for some time now, so I've been meaning to check out some of her work. I'm glad I did. This is a great story with alot of emotion. I found myself staying up late and tearing through chapters as fast as I could. Loved it.
This is the first novel about a gay romance that I've read, and enjoyed it. The story focuses on two eighteen year-old boys in their senior year of highschool. Some behavior--sex, alcohol, running over small children with vehicles--is responsibly managed but definitely elicits an emotional reaction in me. The story focuses on how both boys walk away from their friendship groups because they aren't entirely comfortable with themselves. I really enjoyed how Tanya Chris lets the characters reassemble their lives and their social groups.
YA books are not a big part of my reading list UNLESS they have a unique perspective and are beautifully written. When It All Falls Down is one such book. Tanya Chris is a new to me author and when this book popped up on my feed I was intrigued. I am so glad I bought it!
Andrew and Charlie are two guys in their final year of school. They move in different peer groups and have little to do with one another until both find themselves isolated for very different reasons. The development of their relationship and the realisations they come to about friendship and loyalty make for a riveting, heartwarming and heart wrenching read. It is hard going at times but SO worth the journey.
I highly recommend this wonderful novel and look forward to checking out Tanya Chris' backlist.
What a wonderful coupling--Charlie (left on the cover) and Andrew, who grow into Chaz and Drew just for each other. This is the kind of book that would have been wonderful even if written in the 1950s or any decade after that, given appropriate social and custom adaptations.
I cannot detail the plot better than the blurb, but what I can add is that I was not prepared to be mesmerized as much as I was. There is not much explicitness when it comes to the bedroom scenes, but what there is you will love because it's kindness and love which shows through.
I might wish for a sequel, but then again, there is almost no reason to follow these two wonderful young men as they fade into the sunset with grins. You will grin, too. Bravo!
