The Blighted Son by Peter Harris
dark
emotional
fast-paced
5.0
The first part of this book is hard to read due to the topics discussed, but as the story went on, I really enjoyed it. There were parts where this book read as if I were watching a documentary, and some of the facts went over my head, but the gist of the story itself was really quite wholesome. The transplant changing his personality was very interestng to me as I had a kidney transplant myself and have noticed changes in tastes (e.g I used to love tea now I only drink coffee, and I used to be able to eat spicy things but now I can't) so it was very cool to read about Jim's changes. I also found the Jewish facts about their customs and religion interesting too and I really liked how Edwin became friends with Jim in the end.
I'd like to thank Cranthorpe Millner for the opportunity to share my thoughts on this upcoming book. I'm really grateful.
