The Council of Dads: A Story of Family, Friendship & Learning How to Live by Bruce Feiler

3.0

When I first saw this book in Target, I knew I wanted to get it because I love the show so much and thought it would be an adaptation of the show with the same characters. However, you can imagine my disappointment when I started reading and found out that it was an autobiography/memoir and not an adaptation of the show. It was interesting to read about the inspiration behind the show and how Bruce Feiler’s battle with osteosarcoma shaped and changed his life. This was probably my least favorite autobiography I have read because I just found a lack of interest in the story and it wasn’t dynamic.

Favorite Quote: “Wrap your arms around your fear, wrestle it into submission, redirect it into a source of resilience and purpose.”
