Book Review: The Wooden Spoon....
Summary: 3 Stars
This was a very odd book and not a book I would normally pick up and read. I was captured by the humor and the idea of this very strange plot. It's unique qualities kept my interest. The story is about McCabe. He is a cop in the town he grew up in. He is on his second marriage to a woman he really loves and a step father to Pauline. It was nice to see a good relationship between the step-parent and step-child for a change. One day a strange, crippled dog wanders into town and McCabe adopts him. Only to see him die shortly after. This is the catalyst that triggers the start of a bunch of surrealistic events. I think I understood one of the lessons this book was trying to teach and that was, every part of your life is important and helps build you into the man or woman you will become. However, I think there was more to this book, a deeper meaning that I just didn't get. And of course, the ending made me scratch my head and try and figure out all the loose ends. I can't say I really loved this book but it was so odd, I know I will never forget it.
