review 1: There was a very interesting and compelling story at the core of this book. I wish I hadn't so intensely disliked the main character, and felt he was one of the worst fathers in the world, so I could have rooted for him at any point. I also hated the character of his wife and felt so much pity for their son that it was impossible to root for their family to make it thru the rough patch. All that being said, I still read the whole book so clearly it was compelling enough to keep me turning pages. The writing is quite good, in fact. I just would have preferred to have had something redeemable in the main characters.
review 2: I won this book from a Goodreads First Reads giveaway. When I started reading this book I kept feeling like I was waiting for somethi... moreng big or shocking to happen. As I continued reading I realized it was just more about the everyday individual struggles of the main character Logan Pyle that this book was centered around. I think that because this was such a fast paced read and a relatively short book that this line of storytelling was successful. This book will not go down as one of my all time favorites but it was a very enjoyable read. less
