Mini Review
Surviving Goodbye is my favorite book of the year and another book I added to my all-time favorite list. The story of Elliot, a man who finds out before his wife passes away that he's not the biological of their daughter is a remarkable book. Morgan Parker delivers a superb story as Elliot sets out to find the truth. Surviving Goodbye is one book you'll want to read.
