A Distant Father | 
pickThis one was a very quick read, a story that reads like a long poem. Our protagonist is heartbroken over a betrayal by his father, and at the same time growing into a man himself. Such a short novella, with all the impacts of life woven into it: heartbreak, laughter, coming of age, and in the end; making the right decisions for the ones we love.
“Whatever you do, there‘ll always be someone trying to impose limits on you. Don‘t go looking for them on your own.”
Library haul! The cover for the one on the right is what caught my attention, but the blurb sounds interesting too. The tagged caught my attention because of the title. I have an absentee father so I guess it resonated.
