Historia
Liz Murray was born to loving but drug-addicted parents in the Bronx. In school she was taunted for her dirty clothing and lice-infested hair, eventually skipping so many classes that she was put into a girls' home. At age 15, Liz found herself on the streets when her family finally unraveled. She learned to scrape by, foraging for food and riding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep. Then, when Liz's mother died of AIDS, she decided to take control of her own destiny.

Historia
Everything about 15-year-old Cat's new town in rural Michigan is lonely and off-kilter until she meets her neighbor, the manic, beautiful, pill-popping Marlena. Cat, inexperienced and desperate for connection, is quickly lured into Marlena's orbit by little more than an arched eyebrow and a shake of white-blond hair. As the two girls turn the untamed landscape of their desolate small town into a kind of playground, Cat catalogues a litany of firsts - first drink, first cigarette, first kiss - while Marlena's habits harden and calcify.

Margo is not like other girls. She lives in a derelict neighborhood called the Bone, in a cursed house, with her cursed mother, who hasn't spoken to her in over two years. She lives her days feeling invisible. It's not until she develops a friendship with her wheelchair-bound neighbor, Judah Grant, that things begin to change. When a neighborhood girl, seven-year-old Neveah Anthony, goes missing, Judah sets out to help Margo uncover what happened to her. What Margo finds changes her, and with a new perspective on life she's determined to find evil and punish it.

Historia
I thought I'd left Blackwater, Texas, behind for good. I didn't belong in the small town, but my dad wouldn't listen. He dragged me back home in his beat-up truck and dropped a bomb along the way: Chase Matthews was moving in with us. He was the golden boy of my high school, my former best friend, and the last person I wanted sleeping across the hall. His presence was too great a reminder of the ghosts I was trying to forget.

Only God knew why Jillian Slater agreed to return to New Orleans on the news that her father had finally drunk himself to death. It's not like they were close. She hadn't seen him - or her grandmother, the ice queen - in almost 20 years. But when Adella Atwater, the manager of her grandmother's apartment house, called and said her expenses would be paid if she'd fly in for the burial, a free trip to New Orleans was too intriguing to resist.

Historia
As befits a future President of the United States of America, Maggie Mayfield has decided to write a memoir of the past year of her life. And what a banner year it's been! During this period she's Student of the Month on a regular basis, an official shareholder of Coca-Cola stock, and defending Science Fair champion. Most importantly, though, this is the year Maggie has to pull up her bootstraps (the family motto) and finally learn why her cool-dude dad is in a wheelchair, no matter how scary that is.

A Gripping Coming of Age Tale
This was my introduction to Lutzke’s writing and will certainly not be the last piece of fiction by this author that I’ll read. Though short in pages, Of Foster Homes and Flies is a gut-wrenching, unflinching tale of neglect, love lost, and the seemingly bleak light at the end of the tunnel. Lutzke packs a ton into such a short piece.

A perfect novella...
An incredibly powerful coming-of-age story that sticks with you.
This was the first thing I’ve read by Chad Lutzke, it will NOT be the last. At first, I was trying to figure out just what the genre here was. By the time it ended and I was wiping the tears from my eyes and literally saying “THAT WAS AMAZING” out loud to an empty room, I realized the best way to define this book is “emotional horror”.
There are no creeping boogeymen, no monsters, not even any real human villains, other than we get the impression that the boy’s mother may well have been one of sorts. But the way this builds the tension up to a fever pitch as the boy is hoping to place or win the coming spelling bee while his mother rots in their living room takes you to places of childhood fear and angst that all happen on an emotional level. It was truly brilliant.
The prose was perfect for this. I really felt like I was reading a memoir written by a child, but without any lack of sophistication on the writing front at all. It just connects to you the way your kid’s story might if they were pouring their heart and soul out to you. Masterful seems too trite, but I guess I’ll use it, because that’s what this was.
Not a word is wasted in this brief–but perfectly executed–masterpiece. Every note rings true, and I can’t imagine a single person not adoring this, regardless of taste. It’s that good.
The narration was as good if not better than ANYTHING I've ever heard, and I listen to about 100 audiobooks a year. It's as perfect as the book.
Don’t miss this one. I finished this days ago, and I cannot stop thinking about it. I’ll likely revisit this one several times, which is not something I do very often. 5/5-stars.

What a wonderful little book. The story line, the characters, everything comes together perfectly. It will keep you wondering what will happen next. It is a very fast read but it has so much to offer.

Wow, sad but moving story
I was really surprised by how much of a great story can be packed into such a short book. This was an excellent coming of age story that really makes you stop and think about family and what is important in life. For some it could just be getting a ribbon from the spelling bee, for others it could be having a loving family. Personally I think it is all about pop tarts, but that is me. Besides how great the story was, the writing really impressed me. I felt like I was able to smell the decay and hear the flies buzzing around. One aspect that I think really worked for the story was the timing. Obviously it had a small town feel, but also had a 1980s vibe that reminds me of simpler times. Michael C. Gwynne did a great job with the narration. I really liked his voice and how he told the story. He really breathed life into it. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Sad little story, failry well written and fairly well read. Will look for more from both author and narrator.

🌟This Story Did Fly💫💥
A young boy lives alone with his alcoholic mother & finds himself alone with the one goal of completing the yearly school spelling bee. When things take a turn for the worse he's forced to grow up fast & hide a secret.🤫🤐
A story with sadness, hope, friends & creepy some too.😱🤢
I was actually pleasantly😍surprised, because many books that I have gotten free tend to either: 1. Have awful narration or
2. Be an awful story....or both. This story, though short was actually really good and very different than any other short story I've read or listened to.
🌠The narrator was great & easy spoken. Delivery of all the proper emotions where needed was perfect for me. He made it very easy to get attached to the main character and even relate to at times.
The writer was great!🤩 The development of each character was well done, not to much & not to little. The story was not drawn out & long winded, making it very easy to listen to and even get attached to the characters in one way or another.
Very well done in every way! ⭐👍
No, I was not asked nor told to do this review & yes I got the book for free...BUT I did NOT have to do a review, because if I didn't I could lose my account.
I did this review because the narrator & author DESERVED my review & because, like I said....Rarely do I find a free book that I can actually give a great 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 to!!
5 star for narrator & yes, I recommend him for any book reading. 👍🤩
5 star for story & yes, I recommend the author's (Chad) other stories. 👍❤

Of Foster Homes and Flies
This was a good story. It was not really horror in the traditional sense, but it was a dark coming-of-age tale. I didn't know what to expect and it kept me guessing which was odd for a book that is not really written with that in mind. I liked the characters and I enjoyed how the story unfolded. It was strangely believable.
