"I got motion sickness on the metro because I couldn't stop reading The Goodbyes by Leslie Welch." - Deborah Siegel, Author, The Popularity Plan "The Goodbyes captures the fragility, anger, and sexual exploration of a modern American adolescence. Webb Turner is a complex character grappling with coming of age in an era when talent and fame can minimize the deeper journey toward adulthood. It's an exciting story that showcases how music can not only pull us back into memories, but also propel us forward into new moments full of hope." - Laura Berry, Owner and CEO, Cogberry Creative "Leslie Welch has a knack for making you feel. You love her characters, you sympathize with them, and sometimes you just want to knock some sense into them. The Goodbyes takes you for an emotional ride down the road to adulthood. For anyone who has ever pined, I highly recommend The Goodbyes." - Camille Zions, Goodreads reviewer "I enjoyed this story of a young man with remarkable gifts." -Margaret Holmes, Goodreads reviewer "Really enjoyed reading this book. Could not put it down until I was done at 1am! It was frustrating, funny, and sad. 5/5" - Allison Kelley, Goodreads reviewer
