My guess is everyone can find something they can relate to their own life, even if it is as simple as our 1st driving experience! This is a good book. If you like books about family dynamics and dysfunction, this is one to consider. It's fiction, so you have to give into believing characters, situations and dialogue. I am guessing that it's difficult to portray the mind of someone who is aging and "losing it" but I think Mr.
King does a decent job with the Bill Warrington character. Everyone in the book is pretty believeable with the possible exception of Marcy - she comes across as a bit two dimensional. I enjoy stories that don't feel the need to end in an expected way, or make sure that all story lines are "finished" in a nice way - like this one.
One person found this helpful. I just finished reading this wonderful book. It resonated with me and I know it's message will stay with me. I cannot stop thinking about it. My own family is splintered and much of what is written in this book hit a very familiar nerve with me. I know this is Warrington's first published book and I anxiously await anything else he will publish. This book is beautifully written, easy to read I highly recommend it!

What an amazing book! This is a book about so many things: With such a broad canvas, you'd expect the book to fall short, yet it doesn't. I found it deeply moving and satisfying on every level! Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Boring, depressing story of a ragged old widower and his highly dysfunctional kids and grandkids.
It did not move me. I would not recommend this. I can't say this book kept me on the edge of my seat, but it kept my interest and I enjoyed it. A few areas where I skipped pages, but nothing major. I especially enjoyed the relationship between the grandfather and granddaughter in the story line. A lovely, moving and at times troubling story of a young teen's coming of age on an unexpected and unconventional adventure with her somewhat peculiar grandfather.
It's a wonderful road novel, one that stays with you long after you've finished it. This book won the Amazon Breakthrough Novel award in See all 31 reviews. Most recent customer reviews. Published 1 year ago.
