From Lilac Wolf and Stuff

Fantastic! This guy has a way with words that just demands your attention. Yesterday as I was watching tv and crocheting, all I could think about was finishing this book. And I finally did, after I put the kids to bed.

It really resonated with me because Zach is basically a male version of me. He was a numbers guy who hated his job, hated that world and was happy to give it up to take care of his son. But now his boy is in school and everyone is pressuring him to go back to work. But who would want to go back to something that you truly detested???

So, now what? While trying to figure that out he meets Ginger Charman. She's a wonderful actress who does shows for children in libraries, at parties and so on. Zach comes in and is completely fascinated by this woman. She comes from a similar background, they all do in this story. Children of money. But she throws off all those expectations and follows her passion.

Can he do that? What is his passion? What would he love to do day in and day out, so it wouldn't be like work? He does find a dream and follows it. You'll have to read the book to find out what that is, though.

There were a few parts that seemed forced into the story, taking more time to develop characters would have solved that. But all in all, I enjoyed my time with this one. ( )
