Description

When a lake effect snowstorm forces a close-knit group of college students to spend a night in a dorm lounge, one friend shares a theory - everyone has a distinct moment in their life that transforms them into adults. The youthful idealists dismiss the concept, but 15 years later the memory challenges one to travel across the country, renew relationships and test the premise. His encounters may shock, enlighten and cause you to ask "What was your moment?" Reading "The Lake Effect"' won't change your life but will remind you what did.

Review: Lake Effect

I loved this story and expect this to be an excellent book for a discussion of then - versus - now.

 It speaks to the intimate side of relationships. The glad, bitter, thrilling, and disappointing times that happen and the unrealistic expectations that occur. It helps us look at how we often enjoy pushing and cajoling ourselves into believing what we are doing is appropriate.

Now that I've read this story, I look at life differently - more closely. 

Pondering a distinguishable moment of becoming an adult, helped me find more balance in the journey.
