Eddie's Bastard by William Kowalski
5.0
I got this book from an old man who knows i like reading, he got it from a library who gave away books that no one borrowed, he took it off their hands and gave it to me.
The book has a sticker melted onto the cover saying "$2", pretty cheap for a book if you ask me. Why did a library book have a price tag on it? beats me.
But for a book being worth only 2 dollars when it was first sold... it was unbelievably good. I would pay hundreds of dollars to erase my memories of this book and read it all again.
The old man who gave it to me checks up on me and asks if i've read any of the books he's given me over the years and to be honest.. most of the books are trash but i do try to read one of them a month so reading this book was a chore to me, just so i could say i read one of his books instead of disappointing him.
I'm so glad i picked up this book and i never would of thought it would be a new favourite.
The cover of the edition i own is ugly.. like really ugly and i can't find the edition on goodreads but words can't describe how ugly it is. BEAUTIFUL story on the inside though.
I can't recommend this book enough.
