Wow ! The One In A Million Boy is outstanding !!
You never know his name, but you won't forget him.
This book was recommended to me and I was told to not read any reviews, "just read it". I'm surprised there isn't more talk about it.
It's a beautiful novel that is engaging, sad, but not without hope, funny, poignant. The author draws so many emotions from you.
The story of an 11 year old and a woman who is 104. The boy seen through Ona's eyes is such a sweet character.
The story of a Father who didn't think he loved his son enough.
It's very character driven, but all of the characters are special to the story and very believable
This book is about life and friendship.
It's hard to do a review on a book like this and give it justice. I will just say that I highly recommend it.
It's ultimately uplifting and hopeful. It had all the feels for me

Thank you Larry. I thought so. That means a lot coming from you because I'm pretty new on here and I think you have awesome reviews.

You deserve it. You're welcome. I have some awesome friends already with like minded views on books. I love Goodreads
Another good review Sarah! You are making me want to read these "newer" books sooner rather than later :)
Great review! I loved this book too!!
Melanie, I know I have both older and newer saved. I might have to alternate. =) This one was literally shoved in my hands and they told me just read it. I'm glad I did. I'm glad you enjoyed the review. Thanks
Karen, this one took me by surprise. I'm so glad I read it. What an endearing read I wasn't expecting
Sarah wrote: "Karen, this one took me by surprise. I'm so glad I read it. What an endearing read I wasn't expecting"Yes, I had quite a few 5 star reads last year and this was one of them :)
I love it when they are written that well Karen. Whenever I'm reading one, I'm thinking about what I'm going to read next. =)
The one I'm reading now is short
I loved your review, Sarah! So intriguing and stripped-down honest! I'm going to give it a try, and I need to add another book like I need another hole in my head! :<]
Great review, Sarah! I am looking at your review and I am thinking where was I looking at this book and then it hit me. I bought the audiobook today. Too many books. Glad to see it was a good one for you.
Thank you Linda, I think you would enjoy this one. It's such a good story. I smiled when you said you needed another book. I understand totally. Haha !
Thank you Brenda. I can't wait to see how you like it. I told my hubby there's no such thing as "too many books"

Okay. I'm adding it too! Just because.
Excellent Sarah! I'll have to add it to my to read list.
Wow is right , Sarah! Loved this too . Great review.
