Kirby, Jessi. In Honor. Simon Schuster, p. $ When seventeen-year-old Honor's brother, Finn, dies in Iraq, her dreams of starting college in the fall seem trivial and unimportant. In Honor by Jessi Kirby was a quick read for me as I immediately found Honor's devastation thrust upon me and then, once the road trip started, I got to feeling like I had hopped in the car with Honor Rusty and settled in for the ride with my hair blowing in the wind singing along to the classic rock. Honor's Aunt Gina, her guardian, has an unbelievably accommodating parenting style. The debit card Honor borrowed from her brother is just too convenient. And Honor dismisses supposed best friend Lilah all too easily. But bad-boy Rusty is appealing, as are the folks they meet along the way, and Rusty and Honor's romantic banter is satisfying.
