Very sad but very good.....review to follow.

My review:

It is described as funny but I found it deeply moving and sad.

It can't be October already is a short story and my review will also be short as I just do not want to give anything away. I really don't.

Pat O’Flynn is a delightful and engaging man whom I'd like to be friends with and most likely so will you. But he has a problem. He's homeless. And it's October. And getting cold.

I realize this review is shorter and way more vague then most of mine are, but there is not any real way to do a long review without giving anything away in this bittersweet little tale. It is my first time reading Jeffrey Archer's work and I was deeply impressed and plan to read more.

Highly recommended if you have less then an hour and want something quite short but moving and lovely. ( )

I have long been a fan of Sir Jeffrey Archer and have read most of what has been in the public purview. I have found his writing to be charming, witty, reflective, honest with well constructed story lines. This short story is all of the aforementioned but also a very poignant social commentary.

Thank you NetGalley & St. Martin's Press for an arc. ( )
