This is the type of book where the ending completely changes the way I look at the story. Now looking back the book is really about finally growing up and taking accountability. The main character is really despicable but the problem is that you can still kind of understand why he acts the way he does. His wife deserves SO much better though, I mean we don’t even get to know her name…
