Authors tell stories in different ways, and this is well told. We are taken on a journey here, characters revealed quite clearly. There was sadness for sure, but the author prepares us for it. I think there is much to be found in this offering, so I strongly suggest you read it. Cheers!

A compelling yet sad story about a James Dean like figure named Carver, who seemed to have been born with everything - looks, brains, and talent.  He also knew he could always count on his childhood friend, even when he was at his lowest point.   Their friendship lasted throughout Carver's short and tragic life and I'd recommend "Forever Young" to anyone who was looking for a touching, yet sad, story.

Some stories give the answers, some rise the questions. This is one of those story that brings some profound questions of life.

In a life long friendship, whith all ups and downs, remains dilemma of choices we make. What is the price of succes and what is the purpose of wealth if it is not shared with love of our life? What is a happy, fulfilled life?

This great story will make you think about all above mentioned questions and, maybe, help you make the right choices in your own life.

This is a beautifully written, hard-hitting story of life, one which follows a very close friendship from birth to death. It leaves me wondering, was Carver always looking for that something more that we all crave? And not realising that he always had it with his friend, the unnamed narrator. This is a very well-written, moving story that I couldn't fail to love and happily recommend to all.

Your review is greatly appreciated and my humblest thanks!!!

Two young men whose friendship lasted from school to adulthood, even when they drifted apart.

A hard hitting tale of a young man who finds fame, fortune and all of the complexities that go with it.

A story that must be read, but keep tissues handy.

Thanks Secret Author for such a great piece of writing.

A rather compelling (and condensed) tale of the relationship between two friends from school and into adulthood- a friendship that waxed and waned until the end.

Much ground is covered in a short number of words, but the complexities of the personality of the “famous” friend are nicely developed, as are the feelings of the bystander narrator.  
 

A good entry to the competition.

Thank you for your kind comments and review!!
