When We Ride: A Novel
📚 Why We Recommend ItWhen the roar of engines cuts through the silence of the street, this ride becomes more than just chasing the wind. Rex Ogle’s When We Ride uses searing prose to carry a group of teens into the wilderness of growing up—they might be on rusted old motorcycles, or harboring restless energy with nowhere to go, but what they’re chasing on the asphalt isn’t just speed, but dignity and connection overlooked by life.
There are no grand adventures here, just raw, unflinching moments: a head-on clash with prejudice, searching for light in the cracks of family, or decoding unspoken struggles in a friend’s silence. Every mile holds the weight of youth; every sudden stop carries a question for the world. As wheels roll over rough patches, they learn to lean on each other, shouting their truest desires into the wind. This isn’t a manifesto of rebellion—it’s a story of teens measuring the world’s warmth through their rides, fighting loneliness with the strength of shared purpose. Open the book, and you’ll swear you can hear, in the hum of engines, the echo of every soul that’s ever wanted to run… but stay, too.
