  College Candy — Authority: 649
  When I first saw “ Going Bovine ” on Amazon.com , to be honest, I was a bit scared of the cover. A creepy cow carrying an equally creepy garden gnome? Needless to say, along with feeling frightened, I was also intrigued. “Going Bovine” tells the story of Cameron Smith, a 16-year-old loner and somewhat loser ...
