The History Major
Author: Michael Phillip Cash

Description:

After a vicious fight with her boyfriend followed by a night of heavy partying, college freshman Amanda Greene wakes up in her dorm room to find things are not the same as they were yesterday. She can't quite put her finger on it. She's sharing her room with a peculiar stranger. Amanda discovers she's registered for classes she would never choose with people that are oddly familiar. An ominous shadow is stalking her. Uncomfortable memories are bubbling dangerously close to her fracturing world, propelling her to an inevitable collision between fantasy and reality. Is this the mother of all hangovers or is something bigger happening?

Praise:
"Cash never shies away from tough topics and themes; however, in The History Major his exploration of certain thematic elements goes deeper than usual. His love of history combined with a keen sense of human nature has provided a riveting story that deals with trauma, grief, acceptance, and finding inner strength. Cash has created a multi-dimensional experience between plot and character through the exploration of dreams and historical figures. He has created a riveting sense of perplexity that lingers long after the last page and author's note.”—Bianca Schulze, Book Reviewer

"Cash intermingles beauty and violence ...It's smartly ambiguous and open to interpretation, and some may delight in a second (or third) read." —Kirkus Reviews

The History Major is a quick and fascinating novel that manages to explore several deep concepts and themes within a rather small book. Even though topics such as grief, acceptance, and reality itself are discussed, I found the book easy to slip into without getting confused. I enjoyed the original blend of genres the author used to create this mind bending story. The book's main character - Amanda - is well written and has distinct personality flaws and strengths. I liked trying to figure out what exactly was going on before the characters did, which was rather hard due to the short length of the book. Some elements felt a bit cliche and stereotypical at times, but I'm attributing this again to the short length of the novel. If it had been longer, I'm sure that every aspect of the story would have been detailed and distinct. Overall, I found this to be an enjoyable, short read that was solidly written and overall well done.
