Leech Mob Girls

     

    Eve                                               Krissy 

In Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang, we lucked out to have the coolest and smartest group of punk rock chicks in one place in time.  They didn’t even dress that weird, but the Jocks would stare at them, the preppy girls didn’t like it and there was nothing but problems but I don’t care what anybody says, the Leech Mob Girls were just hot!  Macey is a pretty girl who every Leech Mobber is secretly in love with. Could it be her natural good looks and her sweet personality?  Macey’s always down to hang out, just don’t tell anyone you saw her smoke pot! 

In the chaos that surrounds the Leech Mob, Krissy often has to step in and set things straight.  This is not going to be a simple thing to do, yet we still have to commend the girl’s efforts.  Violet dated half the Leech Mob so when it’s your turn, don’t expect any special treatment.  As Krissy warns Kelly, “Don’t let Violet make you cry.” Yet still, Violet remains the funnest girl in the world to skip school with. Eve is a tough chick who doesn’t take shit from anybody.  She makes combat boots and fishnet stockings look good.

To Fight Or Not To Fight

John Harwood

In Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang,  the topic of bullies and standing up to bullies runs through the book.  Upon moving and going to a new school, Kelly first has problems with a gang of Jocks. So the readers can ask themselves, “Did Kelly deal with the situation the right way?” and "What other ways could he have dealt with the situation?"  By choosing to fight back, Kelly made a few enemies; however, by choosing to fight back, he also gained a little self-confidence.

A gang of Skaters and then, the Leech Mob approach Kelly next. At these points, is Kelly handling bullies in a different manner?  The reader can experience how different gangs of kids handle problems with each other.  After Kelly starts hanging out with The Leech Mob, they all have trouble with the Jocks - an older gang of football players, and then later with the Empire State Skinheads, and last with Hilltop Posse.  How these kids handle problems with each other is intriguing to read. We find it might be best not to fear the other groups but to approach each other in a more bold and, sometimes, good-natured spirit.

Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang is pure entertainment

Hey Guys,

After 8 years of writing Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang, I believe that it’s finally ready for ya! I promise you, your high school teachers will hate it –which means they’ll never assign you Leech Mob homework, so you have to be daring enough to read it on your own

         But what’s the novel about, you ask?  Basically kids torturing each other.  We do what we do best.  We get into street fights, we pull school pranks, we go to cool raves.  You’ll learn how to make poon-tang–not what you think.  Wait!  I think I should say here that you shouldn’t try anything that you read in this novel.  We got arrested a bunch of times–not good on the old college application!  So, this ain’t your regular novel.

Leech Mob Novel Appeals to Teens and to Reluctant Readers

Even though the school system tried to kill me, I survived because our gang was a cool bunch of friends who always had each other’s back in an otherwise unfriendly world. Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang is the wisdom about growing up that I was able to get across enemy lines.  I leave it in the hands of you kids now, so start reading!

         What? You don’t like reading books?  Well, neither do I if you’re talking about most of the boring novels we were assigned to read in high school. But Leech Mob is altogether different.  It’s about high school kids who are experimenting with being adults.  We make lots of mistakes, but our lives go on.  Yep, there is some violence in the book, but the fights are real rather than glorified.  No one walks away a hero, and not everyone walks away.

Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang author biography of John Harwood

      I was born in New York and moved to Connecticut at the start of high school, graduating after a series of stints at various schools. I then attended a semester here or a year there at several New England universities, struggling with the normalcy of traditional conventions. But it’s high school that left lasting impressions. As with all of us, these were growing years, learning about myself and others, exploring what life is about, pushing the boundaries society puts on us, and learning where I fit––and often DIDN’T FIT––in the grand scheme of American society. 

Taking artistic license to the limit with the wild parties, the high school pranks, the underground music scene, brushes with the law and, of course, the brawls! I wanted to write a book that young people would have fun reading. As a kid, I loved books, but was turned off to reading during high school because the novels were totally irrelevant to my life. So I decided to start with the important social issues of growing up––with a bunch of crazy and often painful stories about teenage kids. The end result was  Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang.

I want the youth to know that I love them and I wrote this book for them. Hopefully, they will benefit from the experiences of Kelly Hayes.
