Storytelling is at its absolute best in this lovingly told tale of hurt and healing, of friendship, of the importance of place, and of unexpected romance. It tugs at the heartstrings, akin to the movie 'It's a Wonderful Life,' and the play 'Our town.'
The cruel violence of the New York City streets and unspeakable abuse at an ill-run orphanage mark Clark Miller's years before the age of seven. Tragic events continue to haunt the young orphan causing his adopted grandparents to raise him up in the small remote town of Millcreek, Pennsylvania. The beginnings, finally, of a place to be from and a foundation of family and one true friend, Willow Barker, are shattered by tragic circumstances. Clark Miller, the teenager, flees the town afraid of the rightful blame of its people, and to free the town and Willow from the menace he has always been.
Over thirty years Clark has forgotten Millcreek and Willow Barker. Until a telegram arrives from Willow's grandmother indicating his adopted grandmother has passed away. He is drawn back to the town he fled in shame, reliving his darkest past and a haunting he, Willow, and Millcreek had buried for more than thirty years.
'Away Home' is a heartwarming story perfect to enjoy for the Christmas and year end holidays. It may take you back to your own small hometown that you couldn't wait to leave but that has always drawn you back. Some say you can never go home. But if you are lucky, it is the opposite. You never really leave.

Away Home L K O'Neal 9781518741296 Books Reviews
Very good book. Makes you feel good. Definitely deserves 5 stars! You he's your heart. Feels like you are a part of the Millbrook community. Feels like home.
This book is filled with interesting ideas that are quite unique but yet the story reminds me of
a place that I used to visit myself. I enjoyed the writing style and could identify with the
characters. This book will certainly stimulate your mind and I recommend it highly.
Away Home is a well-written book with an interesting storyline. As a main character, Clark Miller is relatable in a way that probably everyone can identify with - a past he'd rather forget but simultaneously wishes he could change. This is a pretty quick read that will make you laugh... and maybe cry at the same time.
This is a story about things that change your life, how you can wish life were different and finding yourself in the journey . Sometimes funny and sometimes heart breaking, but always entertaining.
All I could think of was ...verbose. If you read the first 1/4 of the book and then go to the last 1/4 it is not too bad. I passed page after page until I saw what looked like new items. How many ways can you describe the creaking of the porch boards. How many times do you relive a moment in time, and how many pages do you devote to one thought. For $0.99 I guess you get what you deserve and can't complain. I read somewhere that this author had his book published himself. That probably explains everything - when a publisher will not publish you - then you pay and do it yourself.
Can't recommend this enough!
