1.8.2018 - Only the Rain
Thanks to NetGalley, Thomas and Mercer, and Randall Silvis for the opportunity to read and review this book - thoroughly enjoyed this one!
Written as one long chapter, basically as emails from the subject of the book to his war buddy talking about how one decision changed the course of his life.
Russell is a war vet who came back with lots of internal scars and a drive to do well for his family. When the plant he works for closes down, he sees all his hard work and future hope crashing down with no outs. On his way home from work that day, he happens on a stranger, dancing in the rain. When he decides to stop and help, he sets in motion a series of events from which he may not recover.
I liked the way the story spun out, as we learned about Russell's past as well as the current events. I loved Pop - absolutely the best character of the book.
