Even Better
After Lamb's first book, "She's Come Undone", I thought the second book would never measure up. Well, he did it again - and even better! I can't put it down and don't want it to end... If he can do this twice, then surely his next will be wonderful!

Absolutely Fascinating
Absolutely fascinating to see the reactions to mental illness and to see how the brother is driven/destined to be his brother's keeper and give up the role. Extremely realistic, moving, though-provoking.

The Best Book I've Ever Read
This was the best book I have ever read. I carried this large book with me every where I went. I could not put it down. Thank you for the book Wally I am waiting for your next one. Thanks again.

Incredible Novel
I think this book is a must read and have suggested it to anyone who loves to read. While the length may appear daunting, it really is a fast read and not nearly as depressing as She's Come Undone. I found the relationship between the brothers very moving. I read this book 5 or 6 years ago and still think about it at times. I highly recommend finding the time to read it!
