Russell works in a
quarry, is a veteran, husband, and father to 2.5 kids. He and his wife are living
the American Dream. They’ve got decent jobs, just bought a home, and are
waiting for their 3rd child. Then everything goes sideways. One
decision, one mistake, one out-of-his-control event, and now everything he’s
ever wanted is all in jeopardy.
The storytelling in this
book is a bit different. Russell is writing to an Army buddy through emails,
reflecting on the events that led him to what happened, how he screwed up, and
how he managed to make things right again. But are things right? Will things
ever be right again? No. They can’t after what’s happened. But hopefully they
can move on. I’ll be honest, this isn’t the greatest story out there. But it is
compelling enough to keep a person reading, to see how Russell is going to get
through this terrible fuck up. I have to admit I didn’t see that ending coming.
I envisioned something else, but I’m satisfied with how it played out. My favorite character is Russell’s grandpa,
Pops. What a cool guy! All-in-all a decent read.
