!!!!!!
I could not put this book down. I read it within 24 hours. (No small feat from a slow reader.) My only regret is it is over and I miss that voice of the author. The Mom is the best. Rarely does a Mom get such love and credit. I think it is one of my favorite aspects of the memoir that this women is so remarkable and her son gets it. Bravo. Thank-you. Its a big book.

Tender Bar terrific
What a wqonderful memoir! I didn't want it to end. I would love to meet JR Moehringer. This is more of a man's read, but I adored every word. It touches your soul.
