ONE LAST THING BEFORE I GO (Jonathan Tropper) - January 23/13

Oh, Jonathan Tropper, you magnificent bastard. Tropper does it again with this slightly overlong yet completely engrossing novel. It started out a little shaky, I'll admit, but within 50 pages or so I was completely and utterly hooked. And by the time the last 30 pages rolled around, I was in tears. I'm a little frustrated by the ambiguous conclusion (ie is he dead or not?), but still this is another unqualified masterpiece from Tropper. **** out of ****
