Edward Stanton is a man hurtling headlong toward middle age. His mental illness has led him to be sequestered in his small house in a small city, where he keeps his distance from the outside world and the parents from whom he is largely estranged. For the most part, Edward sticks to things he can count on...and things he can count. But over the course of 25 days (or 600 hours, as Edward prefers to look at it) several events puncture the walls Edward has built around himself. In the end, he faces a choice: Open his life to experience and deal with the joys and heartaches that come with it, or remain behind his closed door, a solitary soul.

Listened to this one in the car. Really enjoyed it. Edward developed nicely as a character throughout the story.
I really enjoyed this story. I feel all the “cool” words have been used in other reviewers comments, so I'll just say a little about Edward. Edward is human. He has fears, like me. He laughs when he thinks things are funny, like me. I liked Edward. Read this book.
