Twenty-One Truths about Love by Matthew Dicks

Do you like lists? I do. But I couldn't have imagined a whole novel written in list form. Matthew Dicks has achieved an amazing feat with his novel of lists. Former teacher, and current bookstore owner, Dan, is trying to cope with the many uncertainties of life - decisions about having a child, anxieties about money, anxieties about managing employees, jealousy of his wife's dead first husband, to repair, or not, his relationship with his father. As he keeps list after list, Dan expands his heart, his life and his understanding of love.
