Rating: It was amazing!
15 year-old Luther T. Farrell is an ace student who wants to be a philosopher, but his mom (a.k.a the Sarge) has him work in one of her group homes to prepare him to take over her business. Luther is content with this, but events in his life make want to leave...And give the Sarge a piece of his mind. Bucking the Sarge is an excellent, well written and fun-to-read novel of the coming of age of someone who has been unfairly subdued all his life. Between the basic futility presented in his life, is a complexity that will draw readers in. Read it! It's definitely worth your time.
Recommended to: to readers of the age of 12 or older
