I'm a big fan of Donald Miller and he did not disappoint with this one. I find his writing style to be very conversational and down to earth which really appeals to me. This book felt like his most personal one yet. I could relate to much of what he wrote about here. While my own father didn't abandon me, he wasn't exactly the father figure I needed him to be. In fact, I really haven't had any good male role models growing up and that is something that I have been seeking for the longest time. I liked Miller's use of God here to evoke that sense of something lost. Simply put, this was quietly powerful and one that I will be recommending to all my friends that grew up without a father figure in their lives. Miller is fast becoming a favorite of mine.
