Background Information
I’ve reviewed multiple books by Alex Diaz-Granados before. You can read the reviews here. And I’ve talked about how I find Jim Garraty’s character particularly interesting. So when Alex told me he had written a short story about a past experience of the character Jim Garraty (the main character in his books), I was quite excited to read it. And I’m glad I did.
I decided to share my review of The Summer of Two Movies by Alex Diaz-Granados as well because I feel a lot of you would really enjoy it. Especially those of you that have read the books. You can read The Summer of Two Movies here.
The Summer of Two Movies By Alex Diaz-Granados Review
I thought The Summer of Two Movies was a short but interesting and immersive read.
One of my favourite things about Alex’s writing is the descriptiveness. I’m sure I’ve mentioned this on my other reviews too because it’s something that stands out. His writing is neither too descriptive nor lacking proper descriptions. It really helps the reader feel like they are there with Jim, experiencing what he did and seeing what he did.
This might be a bit of a spoiler but the story does include references to Star Wars which if you don’t know the original trilogy is probably my favourite movies of all time. So, that was cool to read because it was a pretty relatable thing.
Final Thoughts
Overall, I really enjoyed The Summer of Two Movies by Alex Diaz-Granados. I thought it was very well written and I loved seeing more of Jim Garraty’s backstory. I would very much recommend reading it on his blog. You can read the short story by clicking here.
I would also recommend reading the books first because it’ll give you better context with Garraty’s character. Alex’s books are available on Amazon, you can purchase them by clicking here.
