I told him what this book was about, and he insisted that I should not feel sorry for Frank, that Frank is an asshole who got what he deserved. He is a paraplegic, somewhere between Freeberg and Frank: he can't walk, but he can use his arms. My husband was injured by a drunk driver as a child. It's a strange feeling to hope someone kills the main character, or he magically dies - not because I hate him, but for his own good. This is a quick read, but still emotional. That's not the worst it could have been, but once you lose your limbs, it's basically over. Some might even say "ruined." It's kind of a claustrophobic book to read because he is so trapped. This is the story of a boy who drives drunk, has an accident, and his life is changed forever.
