“MacKenzie’s Last Run” by Gayle Rosengren is a compelling and emotionally charged read. The story follows thirteen-year-old MacKenzie Lawrence and his twin sister, Tessa, as they navigate life after losing their father in a tragic mass shooting over a year ago.
During an Easter family dinner, their mother reveals that sheโs planning to marry a man named Simon. Unable to accept this news, MacKenzie delivers an ultimatum: she can choose either Simon or him. His family dismisses his words, but Mac is serious. Determined to make his mother understand how he feels, he hatches a plan to run away from home. At dawn, he sneaks away and takes refuge in a secluded lake house.
What happens next? Does Macโs plan go the way he imagined, or does something unexpectedโand possibly dangerous occur?
This story is gripping from start to finish. The pacing is brisk, with never a dull moment. The cover art is eye-catching, and the book is sure to resonate with fans of children’s fiction. I especially loved Mac’s characterโheโs relatable, brave, and full of heart. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and highly recommend it.
