Larry Tolleson is confronted with a choice and not one of his making. His mother decided he was bright enough to start school a year early. Larry is entering his senior year in high school when his mother realizes that decision didn't give him the best start in life. She agrees with his guidance counselor that he should take a do-over year to let his body and emotions catch up to his intellect.Larry approaches his senior year full of hope. This will finally be his year. He sets his goals on becoming a better athlete, more confident with girls, and finding his path to college. Now the adults in his life are questioning his readiness and capabilities. The concept of a do-over year sounds like he's going backwards. They say it's his choice, and his alone, but it isn't one he requested. They say they want him to be the best version of himself but what's wrong with the current version? They say he needs more time to mature but the decision requires wisdom and maturity. They say it's his salvation; it feels like punishment. Larry is an overachiever, always trying to please others. It's becoming increasingly clear to him that whatever he decides, he can't please everyone.Life is a series of choices, many inconsequential, some life changing. Are we defined by the decisions we make or how we react to them? My Do-Over Year examines Larry Tolleson's life with and without the do-over year. Can he become the best version of himself?My Do-Over Year is the author's second novel and the prequel to Lucky Larry.
