I love the premise of this story and the honesty of the author ahead of getting into it. I was fully invested in the story and was happy to embrace everything it had to give (even if it was heartbreaking).

I'm not sure words can capture the complexity of the emotions I felt reading this. It's a dying fathers last attempt to connect with his estranged son and tell his story in hopes of providing clarity (and yes, I did in fact cry for him).

The book was really beautiful although I thought the pros at times could’ve gone deeper I understood why it didn’t wise the father was not a man of academics or learned thoughts so it makes sense why the pros was very simple and straightforward however, at times I felt myself wishing that it would dig a little deeper, but still a really fantastic and beautiful read Highly emotional. If you ever fantasize about getting that apology from your dad, read this
