Book Review 2

Wow Am I behind!

The Sunflower by Richard Paul Evans............. I have to admit I am not a fan of Evans' books(or for that matter Nicholas Sparks or Mitch Albom or a host of other authors that have one successful book and continue to play off that success with other books that are often the same. This is the story of two characters running away from their past. One(Paul) had been at it a little longer than the other. They meet in Peru while doing charity work at The Sunflower, an orphanage for street children. I think that Paul was a good character, but I had no sympathy for the female character. The most enjoyable part of the book for me was the captions and quotes from Paul's Journal that were at the beginning of each chapter.
