The Good Father
The Good Father: A Novel
by Noah Hawley
A Real OMG Book!!!! (12/8/2011)
I haven't read a book THIS good in a while! I used to think it was overkill to describe any product, book, or movie with a bunch of grandiose adjectives, but "The Good Father" deserves every one of those words. Spellbinding, engaging, thought-provoking, riveting, …more
