review 1: I was leery going in, told through news paper clippings, journal entries, letters, and conversations that are more like question and answer sessions, Kimball does a wonderful job at weaving together a remarkable narrative that is moving and emotes but does not come across as cloying or sentimental. The story of the Bender family told through the life and loss of JT is gripping (and a really really quick read).
review 2: In this epistolary novel, the main character comes across as a sweet, unusual, troubled adult. I enjoyed how Kimball portrayed his POV over time through interviews, scraps of reports and other's diaries, and his own letters to everyone in his life. The honesty and quirkiness of the main character is endearing, yet because of the artifice of the... more epistolary form, this book lacked depth for me, thus 3 stars. Reads like more of a novella. less
