I absolutely love this story. It's not your typical sci-fi story and being someone who enjoys things that are little strange I thoroughly enjoyed this. It's a little confusing in the beginning, but totally worth hanging on until the end. It is very different from anything I've ever read before, but like I said I enjoyed it thoroughly. It's about a boy named Alex and he has a special gift despite the fact that he has spina bifida. It's a very well-written story and very well thought of. I like how he is portrayed in the struggle he has using his wheelchair. I say this because I'm in a wheelchair as well and it's very nice to see a character who has similar struggles in their everyday life. I would love to see a sequel to this story written, but if there isn't one there is no cliffhanger so you're not left wondering. I just think this story could be expanded on a little bit. I'm a very big fan of well detailed stories. Overall I would give this book 5 stars. It totally threw me off with its twists and turns, but it was totally worth it every single second of the way. This story also deals with a very real situation for a gay teenage boy. I thoroughly enjoyed how both characters had their situations intertwined. I would like to read other stories by the author eventually. If you get this book be prepared to not be able to put it down. It will suck you in and keep a hold of you the whole time.Tags : Spinner - Kindle edition by Michael J. Bowler. Download it once and read it on your Kindle device, PC, phones or tablets.

Spinner eBook Michael J Bowler Reviews
I don't remember what prompted me to download this, but I'm glad I did. This definitely had an original storyline. I particularly liked that the main characters were those with various disabilities, not "mainstream" characters.
This is a great book. It tells the story of how Alex, a student with physical and learning disabilities and his friends with learning disabilities deal with Alex's talent of "spinning" people. Alex's talent makes him desirable to several evil people who want to exploit him. Several groups are trying to capture Alex but Alex and his friends use their ingenuity and various talents to survive.
Michael Bowler, as a former Special Education teacher and an adult with a disability, understands how students with disabilities think and feel. It is easy to relate to his characters who have been bullied and abused throughout their lives.
The book is well written, the story keeps you on the edge of your seat and it greatly explains the traumas faced by children and young adults who are bullied. Every high school student should read this book!!!
Our hero, Alex, is the least likely person to ever have that description applied to him. He's a foster child, in the system for most of his life. He has spina bifida, restricted to a wheelchair and unable to have any use of his legs at all. Due to all the above, he has been a victim of teasing and bullying, but seems never to hold a grudge, and in fact will go out of his way to help or heal any of his friends that he can. He is a true empath, able to absorb the pain and injuries of others into his own body and release it out of himself into the unknown. He has friends, Roy, a boy from school, the "special" kids in his class, the elderly lady next door who makes him a lunch every day, and Father Pat, the priest whom he assists at mass. How can this group hope to defeat an enemy who has in his arsenal killer cats, and Alex's twin brother, whom he had never heard of in his life! It's a story Steven King would rightly be proud of, and one I hope and believe will send the author, Michael J. Bowler, on the road to fame.
Alex has a secret hiding behind his reputation as the wheelchair kid in special ed. He has always been able to “spin” people. His current foster mom is exploiting that, and he is determined not to let her get in the way of his friendships with the other special ed kids in his class. But when their beloved teacher gets murdered, just the way Alex saw it in his dream, he realizes that the people after him may exploit him far more than his foster mother ever dreamed.
Spinner is a paranormal story told from a special ed kid’s perspective, which does make it somewhat unique. I live the SpEd mom life, and I love seeing disabled children portrayed as heroes rather than useless. I also work in adoption, and enjoyed seeing that play a part in the story as well. Overall the story was a refreshing take on a relatively formulaic story - gates of hell have been unleashed and an unlikely band of misfit heroes must save the day - and the depth humanity imbued in the characters definitely tugs at the heartstrings. There is violence and language in this book, as well as graphic paranormal activity. Still a good read for those who enjoy rooting for the underdog.
The fifteen-year-old Alex is a spinner, a disabled who has been kicked out of many foster homes, but curiously, he has exceptional gifts that many shady groups are fighting to have access to. Aside from the resolve to uncover the mystery about his birth, Alex and his friends have to bring an end to a series of murders especially that of their most cherished teacher. Things only get complicated when Alex discovers an ancient prophecy which speaks of him as one with the power to destroy humanity. Spinner by Michael J. Bowler is a gripping story that will keep readers eyes glued to the pages.
The book is littered with those A-ha moments that will arouse powerful emotions in readers. The writing is fluid and the narrative voice is so clear and absorbing. I loved Bowlers remarkable cast of characters, solid, convincing, and compelling enough to attract the sympathy of readers. The short chapters and shifts in POV makes the read even more interesting, with numerous moments of suspense that make readers want to know what happens next.
I loved the humor. I loved the colorful and vivid descriptions that make readers feel like they were part of the intense drama, and I love the breathtaking action, the frenzy, and the race against time. Bowler has a great gift for writing, but the characters he creates and the powerful message of his story will win the hearts of fans of suspense.
