crose1210's review against another edition
5.0
I read this entire book during a single road trip. A book about a serious topic (strokes), the narrator Jon Hooper is a witty character who kept me laughing during the entire book. I can't imagine what It would be like to wake from a coma after 6 years and not know anyone, but Jon takes us on his journey of "rebirth". An amazing work of fiction!

Predictable but humorous, heartfelt and well-meaning book about 34 year old man who awakes from a 6 year coma. Not sure I'm a big fan of the "disabilities make you a better person" trope (see the movie Regarding Henry, et al) but Cronin is so sincere that you can't really protest. One of the better Amazon freebies I have downloaded in a while.
