Fade to Blue
By Sean BeaudoinPublisher Description
Sophie Blue started wearing a black skirt and Midnight Noir lipstick on her last birthday. It was also the day her father disappeared. Or spontaneously combusted. Which is sort of bad timing, since a Popsicle truck with tinted windows has started circling the house.
Kenny Fade is a basketball god. His sneakers cost more than his Jeep. He's the guy all the ladies (and their mommas) want. Bad.
Sophie Blue and Kenny Fade don't have a thing in common. Aside from being reasonably sure they're losing their minds.
Acclaimed author Sean Beaudoin's wildly innovative novel combines uproarious humor with enough plot twists to fill a tube sock. Part thriller, part darkly comic philosophical discussion, and accompanied by a comic book interstitial, Fade to Blue is a whip-smart romp that keeps readers guessing until the last paragraph.

“This was an...interesting book to say the least. I'm not quite sure if it was my proverbial cup of tea, but there were many things I loved about it. I think I'm just not into all the philosophical undertones (and often overtones); makes my head hurt. But I certainly did love Sophie, the main character. Even though her journey was a little confusing and twisted it was interesting and quite realistic (even while being told through a slightly unrealistic string of circumstances). And I have to say that I do understand that that is what Sean Beaudoin was trying to do. He was trying to look at the idea of 'How are we here?', 'Why are we here?', and 'Are we really here?'. This he did well. I just don't like stories like that. I like a world where I can escape reality, not question it.
All in all a very interesting book. I recommend this to those who don't mind contemplating the big questions and being challenged while reading.”

“I love this book. I just love it. It's so weird and absurd and strange and weirdly written but I enjoyed it so much- even though I'm usually not in these type of stories.”
