Book Reviews of THE ORPHANED ANYTHING'S: memoir of a lesser known
Book Review: An Amazing Book!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was extremely refreshing to read, it felt as if you were reading the thoughts right out of a young man's mind. I must say I have been looking forward to this book since the minute it was announced and boy was it worth the wait, I highly suggest anyone who is even THINKING about buying this book to definitely buy it and read it!
The writing style is unique and really kept me drawn in.
I must admit I found myself laughing quite loud pretty often in this book, there is such a sense of "realism" in this book that I often found myself thinking "haha! I've thought that before!"
For anyone reading this review, please do not soley rely on reviews about this book to make your decision on buying it or not...
a great one once said "I've seen a lot of great statues of great people...and none of them are critics." Oh ya, that 'great one' also wrote a book called The Orphaned Anythings....you should check it out sometime!
Thanks Stephen for an amazing book!!
I'll be reading it again shortly, there were so many funny things in it that I can't wait to get my second laughs around.
Summary of THE ORPHANED ANYTHING'S: memoir of a lesser known
An ?im up, what more do you want from me?? sticker hideously controls the back of Ayden Kosacov?s bedroom door. In his mind what started as a joke is slowly becoming his ?glorious and underrated mantra?. Ayden Kosacov is alive, and that is about all you can say. In the throws of a mundane and jejune life Ayden is slowly coming to the realization that if all his world is a stage than he wouldn?t care if he did or did not miss the final scenes. Through an almost ?accidental? suicide attempt and the recovery that soon follows, Ayden learns that there is more to living than just being alive. Finding his way through diverse experiences and people he comes to terms with God, his family, and finally himself. The Orphaned Anything?s style of writing is in the likes of Dennis Johnson (Jesus? Son) and Dave Eggers (A Heartbreaking Work Of Staggering Genius) and yet designed to give life lessons, encouragement, and hope like books by Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist) and Donald Miller (Blue Like Jazz).Literary Books
