Summary: An Open Book - Closed Mind
Comment: After reading my way thru almost half of this book, could not take any more. I am a life long Lorain resident, growing up in the same time frame that the author did and also attending the same high school. Although the author does write very well, it would behoove him to check his so-called facts, several of the places he mentions have never existed in Lorain and his skewed perceptions of growing up in the city are full of fabrications. How sad that he choose to use his talent in writing such a shoddy book, certainly not something I choose to have on my bookshelves nor recommend to others. Shame on this author!

Comment: I love the book! The book is very special and has a place in my heart. My favorite part of the book is how Dirda makes fun of his middle pesky sister Pamela. i laughed historically at the part. i also like how toward of the end od the book Dirda's hormones begin to blossom. Overall i feel that it is an awesome book and should be read and shared with families all over the world.
