The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell

by Robert Dugoni

Book Overview

Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni's coming-of-age story is, according to Booklist, "a novel that, if it doesn't cross entirely over into John Irving territory, certainly nestles in close to the border."

This Is A Five Star

I just finished this book for a book club meeting next week. I wasn't sure I'd like it based on the description but I actually LOVED it. What a great story with a few surprises at the end!! Definitely recommend!!

Fantastic Read

I had never hear of someone having red eyes before and had to actually look it up. What a struggle this must have been. Beautiful story of life, struggles, love and growth.

Some Prudde Used White-Out on SEVERAL Pages

I am so angry about this book. It was sold as in "very good" condition. It was NOT in very good condition. It has at least a dozen pages with words, or ENTIRE PARAGRAPHS, painted out with White-Out. Some prude first tried erasing "offending" phrases, then turned to White-Out when erasing almost wore through the page. I can't even read this book! I'm so angry. If you don't like adult words or topics, stop reading the book and go to something else. Maybe Dr. Seuss would be better for you.

Dissappointed never recieved book

Never recieved order after paying for it and i am unable to figure put how to just get the money towards another purchase. Its weeks after it was supposed to have arrived as a gift.

Sam Hell

This book made me laugh and cry and I connected with him since my daughter is disabled

One of the BEST books I've ever read!

It is a fast read, hate to see it end, kinda book - especially if you know anything about Catholic elementary schools. The book isn't about that but it would enhance your enjoyment. I laughed out loud and cried out loud. I have purchased additional copies for friends and all loved it as well. Dive in! PS it is not a crime novel like his other novels - but based on this one I plan to read one of those next.
