13. Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood by Michael Lewis
I love it when I go through a spate of good books. This book was the most recent of several books in a row that I have really enjoyed. Too often I’m on the other end where I’m reading a bunch of not-so-good books in a row. The book is of stories Lewis wrote about his 3 children when they were small. Many of them were previously published in Slate magazine. Although he fleshes out the book with some previously unpublished tales. The book is broken up into three sections each encompassing stories from when each of his three children was born and their first couple years of life. They were mostly funny, sweet, heartfelt but not schmaltzy stories. A quick, easy read that is like a nice warm hug on a cold winter’s day. I give it an 8 out of 10.
