5.0 out of 5 stars A great round-trip read!, September 10, 1996

By A Customer

This review is from: My Ride with Gus (Hardcover)

With great characterizations, Charles Carillo writes a holiday story that slaps you upside the head with the notion that no matter who you are or what you do, you have a family. Starting with the initial accident and carried over the next few hours with a family reunion, "My Ride With Gus" drives home the point that while we all go our separate ways, we all started from the same point, and if we lose our way the best solution is to head back to where the terrain becomes familiar again

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Fun Ride, March 1, 2000

Ann-Marie (Atlanta, Georgia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: My Ride with Gus (Hardcover)

I found this book a fast and delightful ride. If you are a fan of Elmore Leonard or Jimmy Breslin, this one will fit the bill. I'm surprised that no one has made a movie yet. Great fun.
