The Free by Willy Vlautin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I give a lot of books that I really like five stars on Goodreads, but I don’t mean it the way I mean it with Willy Vlautin’s books. He’s the patron saint of the sick and the sad, and this is another damn beautiful novel. He tears you down and builds you back up the way only he can. I broke down crying at least ten times but walked away from the book feeling happy to be alive.
