review 1: This book was a realistic look at addiction and anger. I felt for Cory, even though I do not have an alcohol addiction, I definitely saw him using the same excuses I use for other areas in my life. This was a well told story and I felt that I was walking the path with him. This is another great book that shows how our sin does not just affect us, but others all around us as well. The sins of the father cycle needed to be broken in this story and I am glad that Cory woke up before he repeated history with his own son. I also liked that this story showed that just because Cory become a Christian that everything did not magically get better. He still struggled with his sin. Just like we all do. Very realistic portrayal. I received this book from bookfun.org for my honest opi... morenion.
review 2: Home Run follows the downfall and eventual redemption of a major league baseball star. Cory Brand appears to have it all. But he struggles with addiction and anger. He ends up in a recovery program back where everything started for him, his home town. The town where he suffered abuse, became a ball player, found love and eventually ran from responsibility he didn't feel ready for. In this book, you follow Cory's journey of recovery, his acceptance of God in his life and you see him open his eyes and his heart to let love back into his life. This was a very enjoyable read and I look forward to seeing the movie it is based on. I recieved this book for free from bookfun.org in exchange for my honest review. less
