Goodbye Days by Jeff Zentner
4.0
4.5-4.75 stars
This book affected me a lot more than I had expected it to. It was written so well and so emotionally, that I couldn't help but choke up in many instances throughout the story. The concept of having a goodbye day for each of his friend,s regardless of whether he wanted to because he feels like he owes it to them was such a unique topic. My favorite of these had to be Mars' father's. It was the most emotional, and confrontational of all of them. Despite this, I also think it was the one that affected both Carver and the parent the most. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a well written and emotional contemporary read that will make you continue to think long after you have finished it.
