This book is one of the ones that give you that warm fuzzy feeling inside. Philip Nork was born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. After moving to Nevada and accepting a job which left him on the road way too often, he started having dreams...dreams about the women of his life and how they impacted him. After jotting down these "memories" and being able to mold them all into a manuscript that not only told an "interesting and unique story," but left a heartwarming message at the end, he decided to publish this real-life fiction piece to see what would happen. Would people connect with his journey of self-discovery? They obviously have since Phil now has 4 reality fiction books and 1 poetry book available. They all center around divorce, how a child reacts to that divorce and the people around him who help him become a whole person again. This is the third book that I have read by Philip. It was not my favorite one but it was good. I for one would love to have a cabin on a lake. I could just sit out by the water and read all day. I love how Philip tells a story. I love the grandfather in the story,I like books about families. If you do to then this just might be a book for you.   i was given a copy of this book by the author
