I was so very impressed with John Goode's "Tales from Foster High" that I didn't wait long before reading the sequel, "End of the Innocence."Everything I said about the first book goes double for this one. Make no mistake---this is an important book, in the sense that I truly believe this is the kind of story that can change lives---or even save them. And I'm happy to give it five stars.I honestly don't quite know what else to say about it, other than to recommend it---I'm still rather overwhelmed by the story. I'm afraid it was a mistake for me to begin reading this late at night, because once I started I couldn't stop. When I finally got to the last page and put it down, dawn was creeping delicately above the eastern horizon, shades of pale rose dimming a sliver of crescent moon.... And to me the brightening sky seemed a little symbolic, the start of a new and hopefully better day.I'm hoping for at least one more book about Kyle and Brad and their friends; I think there's still more to tell. Recommended.
