Waiting on Wednesday!
Today I am joining Jill again at Breaking the Spine for Waiting on Wednesday.
I was excited when I started looking for upcoming releases that Richard Paul
Evans has a new book coming out soon. He is one of my favorite authors and
I have never been disappointed with one of his titles.
Here is a bit from Simon and Schuster as well as a link to the book from Amazon.
Description
"My name is Alan Christoffersen. You don’t know me. ‘Just another book in the library,’ my father would say. ‘Unopened and unread.’ You have no idea how far I’ve come or what I’ve lost. More important, you have no idea what I’ve found." —Prologue
What would you do if you lost everything—your job, your home, and the love of your life—all at the same time? When it happens to Seattle ad executive Alan Christoffersen, he’s tempted by his darkest thoughts. A bottle of pills in his hand and nothing left to live for, he plans to end his misery. Instead, he decides to take a walk. But not any ordinary walk. Taking with him only the barest of essentials, Al leaves behind all that he’s known and heads for the farthest point on his map: Key West, Florida. The people he encounters along the way, and the lessons they share with him, will save his life—and inspire yours.
Richard Paul Evans’s extraordinary New York Times bestsellers have made him one of the world’s most beloved storytellers. A life-changing journey, both physical and spiritual, The Walk is the first of an unforgettable series of books about one man’s search for hope

The prologue is very good, it got me hooked already! :P
I am not sure why, but when I read the synopsis, I thought of Forest Gump. lol..maybe it's the walk. Lovely cover.
I don't think I've read any of this author, but maybe I'll check him out. My WOW is at The Crowded Leaf.
Sounds like a good book!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog- I'm glad you enjoyed the book cover art! I'm especially thrilled that I won the approval of a true bibliophile. :)
