Breakfast with Scot by Michael Downing
4.0
I was surprised to like this book as much as I did. The prose was fantastic, though I found the characters somewhat difficult to get in to.
The thing I loved best was that it was a truly honest take on parenting. Parenting is scary enough, and I can't imagine being thrown into it unexpectedly to an eleven year old with some issues from his mother's drug use and suicide. Sam and Ed make some mistakes, and they're painfully aware of their mistakes. Constantly trying to improve your game, but never feeling you're doing quite a good enough job....that's pretty much what parenting has been for me.
For what it's worth, I really loved the movie, despite its low quality.
