Soloist (1-6)

This book is very easy to read. I love it! The main characters, Nathaniel and Steve are genius. Nathaniel, just a regular journalist, is going to get hit with the story of a lifetime. He discovers a mental man (Nathaniel) with great instrumental talent. Nathaniel, a homeless instrumentalist, suffers from schizophrenia. This man, gets hit with the opportunity of a lifetime. This concept is great to me, a homeless man getting a chance to become successful.

One day, Steve is strolling around LA, and he spots Nathan. Enthralled, he approaches the lone musician. Startled, Nathan backs away and this is the end of their first meeting. Steve thought what beautiful music being played by a homeless man. He was determined to make this his next story. I am happy to know that Steve isn't just using Nathan to get a good story, he is also trying to get him some mental help. Their next encounters work out quite well and they befriend each other. I cannot get over Steves generosity to a homeless man. This is a critical advertisement to readers. It can show them that good comes out of helping people in need.

Overall, this book is excellent and very readable. Also, it has great moral concepts and would be a good read for all audiences.
