  My Thoughts

I bought the novel The Son by Philipp Meyer around two years ago, shortly after I started watching the AMC television series. With the series coming to an end on June 29th, I finally forced myself to sit down, open the book and start reading. As I am writing this, I'm on page 232 out of 561! It's really well-written, but totally different than the series.
