"Stick" by Michael Harmon follows the story of a teenage boy named Stick, who is navigating a tumultuous life that includes an estranged father, an unstable home environment, and the complexities of friendships. When Stick finds himself on a path of rebellion and recklessness, he also discovers the importance of loyalty, self-identity, and the power of connection. Through his journey, he learns to confront his past, face challenges head-on, and understand what it truly means to be responsible for oneself and others. The novel explores themes of family, loyalty, and the search for belonging in a chaotic world. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
