I am not a crier....have never cried reading s book or watching a movie. Maybe I can blame it on menopause...or that this book really hit home. From the time the main character deployed, I cried every time I picked up the book. As I read this book, my son-in-law deployed to Afghanistan leaving behind my daughter, 2 yr old granddaughter and 1 month old grandson. They had those difficult conversations about how war changes you...how he will not come back the same person. I have also seen the effects of the war with friends and other family members.

This was a great book...be sure to have the Kleenex handy....
