Andrew McCarthy writes a YA Novel

Here's more info here: http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/...s/article/72977-q-a-with-andrew-mccarthy.html

I really liked him as an actor, liked a lot of his 80's movies. So he wrote a YA novel, Just Fly Away by Algonquin which isn't a huge publisher. I checked on Goodreads and it doesn't seem to be getting a bunch of good reviews. I didn't read it so I don't know, but it's got me curious. Anyone here read it? If so, what did you think?

Just wanted to add that he's also a travel writer, which I didn't know. But was successful in that too. It just looks like YA might not be his thing. But I could be wrong.

Yeah, I realize that but there are ways you can still read it. I just thought someone here might have.

I honestly had no idea who he was or why I should care that he wrote a YA novel...

I thought the same thing until I clicked on the link and saw his picture. He kinda has a generic name and he isn't super popular anymore. Not in acting at least. But he was huge in the 80's though. I think he even might have been part of the "brat pack."
