I heard about Raising Jake from one of the women in my book club. She mentioned she liked it and I wrote it down to check it out.
I am so glad I did. While it wasn’t high literature, I actually really enjoyed it. I liked the parts with the son better than the Dad which made it a bummer for me that the dad was the narrator but, of course, I understand why he was. As the mom of a boy, I found the son exceptionally mature and good. I sure hope my sons grow up to be like that. (Except getting kicked out of school of course.)
It’s a relatively quick read but with some good bits. I’d recommend this book.
Karen with such a busy schedule when do you find time to read? Does it vary or do you make it a point to schedule it at a certain hr and is it daily? Just curious.
jesa, i now primarily read when i am exercising which is a good 35 mins a day. sometimes i read before sleep (in bed) too depends on the book and the day
that’s sort of why most of this year’s books are on the lighter side since it’s harder to focus as i exercise 
You could call it a miracle but it really came about from hard work and a lot of self discipline. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! You must feel mahhhhvelous!
