Totally loved this one. I am putting this one on my all time favorite list. A sad and funny book, well written with great characters.
Raleigh is an insurance salesman with no fun in his life. He has a wife who is involved in the community and whom he hasn't been spending much time with and a pair of twin 17 year old daughters whom he just doesn't "get". He and his brother, Gates, are estranged and he hasn't heard from him in 5 years. His father disappears from the hospital where he has been admitted for tests, along with a young girl. Raleigh begins getting messages from his father who sets a series of seemingly impossible, and totally off the wall, tasks for him to do. What ensues is a total comedy of errors. Wonderful cast of characters! The entire time I was reading this one I was picturing it in my head as a movie. I really, really loved this book.
