Aristotle is an angry teen with a brother in prison. Dante is a know-it-all who has an unusual way of looking at the world. When the two meet at the swimming pool, they seem to have nothing in common. But as the loners start spending time together, they discover that they share a special friendship - the kind that changes lives and lasts a lifetime. And it is through this friendship that Ari and Dante will learn the most important truths about themselves and the kind of people they want to be.

What if the drink you just spilled, the train you just missed, or the lottery ticket you just found was not just a random occurrence? What if it's all part of a bigger plan? What if there's no such thing as a chance encounter? What if there are people we don't know determining our destiny? And what if they are even planning the fate of the world? Enter the Coincidence Makers - Guy, Emily, and Eric - three seemingly ordinary people who work for a secret organization devoted to creating and carrying out coincidences. What the rest of the world sees as random occurrences, are, in fact, carefully orchestrated events.

Interesting treatise of Coincidence and Love
Revisado: 03-29-18
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
No, while interesting, it was not very entertaining. I did not care much about the characters and the story line was not engaging. The story was chopped up between the past, present, and coincidence textbook discussion and sometimes while listening I got lost in who was talking and about whom.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Make the story feel less like a lecture.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
No.

Something called the “Blue Juice" is coming. For all of us. Luckily, me (Chip Collins), Pete, Nikola Tesla, Bobo, and FBI Agent Gina Phillips are here to kick its ass, and send it back to last Tuesday. Maybe. Or maybe we'll fail, and everyone in the multiverse is doomed. (Seriously, you might want to get that underground bunker ready.) Either way, I've got to get home to Julie and find out – woah, I'm not about to tell you that right here in the book description! TMI, dude.

a beautifully written story, poetic and haunting

The narrator was fabulous. The story resonated more by hearing it than if I would have read it.

An inside joke for academia
Revisado: 05-01-16
What would have made Cow Country better?
The main character was flat. A more interactive characterization, rather than employing a foil, may have made the story more interesting.
What was most disappointing about Adrian Jones Pearson’s story?
The plot was thin, based only on a series of caricatures of college stereotypes.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The main character was voiced as a bit of an idiot. The other characters were well represented.
