The Fall by Ryan Quinn FIC Qui

       This is a coming-of-age novel.  It takes place at a college hidden away in the peaceful Pennsylvania countryside.  This is the story of three students who are trying to figure out who they are and what they want.  Secrets abound and parents continue to try and have a hold on their children.  Haile is a classical musician but she has left the touring life to get away from her mom and try out some other things.  Ian loves films. He can't be true to himself because he has fantasies about other guys and he hasn't come to terms with that yet.  Casey is the football star and has a steady girlfriend - but he really isn't any happier than anyone else.  Their lives  overlap as they each fight their demons.  It was a quick read and I enjoyed it.
