The true mark of a good book is when you finish the last page and you need time to just sit and ponder. I even found myself reading the acknowledgements because I wasn’t ready to close the book. The character of Sam Watson truly touches your heart and will stay with you well after you finish the book. There are so many issues in this book, but the message of being true to yourself is the key. Wonderful and fantastic, this book was well worth the wait.
