"Romano's series may not have artfully poetic ambitions, but it hits home in ways that can be emotionally brutal -- perhaps none more so than Owen's confrontation with his father, an unforgiving and stubborn man who is also Owen's boss at Thoreau Chevrolet. Dad has been watching with dismay as his salesman-son's health and vigor decline, and finally deals a devastating blow: "You're an embarrassment," he tells him, and Braugher reels from this heart punch with grief you can feel."

"The Bad: Device can be slow, especially when booting up and first accessing a book; no protective carrying case included; color LCD appears to have a significant impact on battery life; in-store reading and loaning capabilities come with notable limits and caveats; no support for Word or text files."
