This book was pretty slow. It was all about the mundane things in life: his cabin, bills, going to the doctor. There wasn’t much plot. It was a good book, I loved the characters and enjoyed getting to know Henry. It was just a tad bit boring at times and took me a while to get through. I thought it would be more philosophical; him thinking back more on his past and his regrets and his feelings.
