Reviewed by Jennifer Wilks, LDSFiles.com Staff WriterThe Final Farewell by Patricia Wiles. Published by Seagull Book.
The Final Farewell is a young adult novel and the fourth and final book in the Kevin Kirk Chronicles.
The Kevin Kirk Chronicles are about a teenage boy growing up in Armadillo, Arkansas. He and his family live in his parent?s funeral home, which ends up being a source of a lot of humor throughout the book. For starters, the book opens on a wedding being held in the funeral home, which pulled me immediately into the story.
Even without having read the first three books in the series, I enjoyed
The Final Farewell a lot. It wasn?t until after I?d read it that I realized it was part of a series, so this book can stand alone or be read as part of the series equally well.
This is a great book for the teenage and young adult crowd. It is a fun and funny read for adults as well, though. So don?t just give this book to your kids to read ? read it along with them! The other books in the series are
My Mom?s a Mortician,
Funeral Home Evenings, and
Early-Morning Cemetery.
