I've been a large fan of Jorgenson's books given anticipating The Mulligan a integrate years ago. we examination A Crooked Number while roving in Germany and unequivocally enjoyed a journey (Germany and a book)... we didn't cry like a baby and make a dope of myself in an airfield like we did with The Mulligan or Waiting for White Horses.... we was indeed relieved we didn't have to travel by some tools of Grant's grief.
Jorgenson writes in a elementary impression that is like articulate to a favorite uncle, abounding in relations and life's daily challenges, passions and victories...
My usually beating with his books is that they end... we skip a characters when a final section is over.

Nathan Jorgenson's newest book, A Crooked Number, is an superb read! His characters are splendidly grown as yet we knew them yourself. The author has a singular ability to broach a low summary while permitting a reader to upsurge simply by a book. He takes his categorical character, Grant Thorson, by dental propagandize and beyond. Having been by dental school, we found myself shouting outloud as we examination any chapter. The memories it brought behind caused me to buy 10 books to give to my friends! His amusement and viewpoint of adore and life make we suffer any page. This book has something for everyone!! John Lawson, Rochester, MN

Can't wait for series four.If we examination usually one book this year this would be a good choice!
