Historia
Something has been asleep in forty-year-old cattle rancher Aiden Delacorte for a long time. It all comes back in a rush during a hunting trip, when he's suddenly attuned to the animals around him, feeling their pain and fear as if it were his own. But the newfound sensitivity of Aiden's "wake up" has its price. He can no longer sleepwalk through life, holding everyone at arm's length. As he struggles to cope with a trait he's buried since childhood, Aiden falls in love with Gwen, a single mother whose young son bears a burden of his own.

Historia
Brooke is a divorced single mom, financially strapped, living with her mother, and holding tight to the one thing that matters most: her two-year-old daughter, Etta. Then, in a matter of seconds, Brooke’s life is shattered when she’s carjacked. Helpless and terrified, all Brooke can do is watch as Etta, still strapped in her seat, disappears into the Los Angeles night. Miles away, Etta is found by Molly, a homeless teen who is all too used to darkness. Thrown away by her parents, and with a future as stable as the wooden crate she calls home, Molly survives day to day by her wits.

Never knowing his parents, eleven-year-old Stewie Little and his brother have been raised on a farm by their older sister. Stewie steadfastly tends the chickens left by his beloved late grandmother. And every day Stewie goes door to door selling fresh eggs from his wagon—a routine with a surprise just around the corner. It’s his new customer, Marilyn.

Resumen del Editor
During WWII, a teenage boy finds his voice, the courage of his convictions, and friends for life in an emotional and uplifting novel by the New York Times and #1 Amazon Charts bestselling author.
1941. Steven Katz is the son of prosperous landowners in rural California. Although his parents don’t approve, he’s found true friends in Nick, Suki, and Ollie, sons of field workers. The group is inseparable. But Steven is in turmoil. He’s beginning to acknowledge that his feelings for Nick amount to more than friendship.
When the bombing of Pearl Harbor draws the US into World War II, Suki and his family are forced to leave their home for the internment camp at Manzanar. Ollie enlists in the army and ships out. And Nick must flee. Betrayed by his own father and accused of a crime he didn’t commit, he turns to Steven for help. Hiding Nick in a root cellar on his family’s farm, Steven acts as Nick’s protector and lifeline to the outside world.
As the war escalates, bonds deepen and the fear of being different falls away. But after Nick unexpectedly disappears one day, Steven’s life focus is to find him. On the way, Steven finds a place he belongs and a lesson about love that will last him his lifetime.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“Fans of Homer H. Hickham Jr.’s Rocket Boys, Andrew J. Graff’s Raft of Stars, and Hyde’s substantial backlist will savor this heart-opening and meticulously researched coming-of-age tale.”—Booklist

Historia
Seventeen-year-old Aidan Lockwood lives in the sleepy farming community of Temperance, Ohio - known for its cattle ranches and not much else. That is, until Jarrod, a friend he hasn't seen in five years, moves back to town and opens Aidan's eyes in startling ways: to Aidan's ability to see the spirit world; to the red-bearded specter of Death; to a family curse that has claimed the lives of the Lockwood men one by one...and to the new feelings he has developed for Jarrod.

Boys to Men/Japanese/Straight/Gay Small Town/WWII
America’s great shame: internment of US citizens of Japanese descent was intensely personal in rural California and Arizona, where thousands of agricultural workers and all generations of their families were crowded into remote concentration camps. Four boys, 14 - 16 years old in 1942 navigate their high school years against the terror, prejudice and ignorance of the adults who control their lives.
Sensitive and insightful.

Fantastic but Disappointed
I couldn't stop listening to this. It was amazingly told but a huge let down. Steven deserved so much more happiness than the last chapter. He sacrificed so much for Nick just to be dropped off at a gay bar with the, "hope we can be friends" speech. Would love to have seen Steven find some happiness in his youth instead of constant loneliness and heart break. Poor guy only got a kiss too.

Great in all levels!
Beautifully written and skilfully preformed (audio version). The pain of how things were before and during the war for all Japanese citizens. All of the intolerance that went in that era should be a reminder to us all.....be kind to one another. I really loved this story. One of the best audio books I have listened to, ever.

Catherine Ryan Hyde is a remarkable storyteller.
Boy Underground is an exquisitely written, uniquely American tale of friendship, love and coming of age with a backdrop of war and prejudice. Sadly, its themes and portrayals might be banned by recently passed laws from any public school library in present day Florida. But I’ll try to remember that the book banners have never been the good guys in history.
