  Summary of this Book...

A quiet story of a man softly caught with strong emotions and how he comes out of his world and into the world outside. Daniel Cambridge, defined by his struggle with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, shows you that there is more to him than that label. He shows you his heart and lets you see the journey he takes from hope to disappointment to the utter terror of winning something. Everyone can find something to relate to in this story of comedic situations and serious events. (You know, the way "life" goes...)

  This type of Book is good for...

Seeing past first impressions, idiosyncrasies, and individuals' personal "ticks" to the souls within.

  I especially liked...

The way the protagonist is portrayed. The first person POV put me in Daniel's head and heart, letting me see the others around him as he saw them, letting me feel the fears and insecurities he felt.

  I didn't like...

The downplay of Zandy's role and the rushed ending.

  This Book made me feel...

Like there was at least one author out there that paid attention to people and wrote about them. (Unlike so many authors that pay attention to the characters others have written and draw from that.)

  I recommend this Book because...

You really need to read it. Even if you should dislike it as a whole, I can't imagine anyone coming away from this tale unchanged.

  Further Comments...

This is a part of my Reading Resolution:
