There were some good lists in the book that encourage reflection. Love the inclusion of a wonderful story of his mother and her pride in her son the author. Even though I read that part weeks ago, I get a mental image of her and it still makes me smile.

Note: This book was provided through the GoodReads First Read program with the expectation of an honest review. My opinions are my own.
