We've all been there. Trusting and believing in the person we're involved with only to find out we shouldn't have. Richard aka Dick is the kind of guy you want to get to know better....with a baseball bat. When the main character JJ runs into Dick in the local gym he realizes Dick's "out of his league". Oh if that were only true the heartache and problems that could have been avoided!In a kind of having been there, done that way I think ever reader can relate to this book.Even though the story is based on events in the author's life, he manages to capture and convey the humor and the hurt in the situation.The characters are well written and relatable. Well except of Dick and is family. If you can relate to them I feel sorry for you.And we all need someone like Alex in our lives. Pure goodness and joy, he's the guy that's able to see the bright side in life. Despite adversities he not only maintains his joy but shares it with others.Make no mistake, this book is NOTHING like "Memorizing You" (Dan Skinner's first book) If you haven't read it you owe it to yourself to.If I were to offer any advice to readers. I'd tell them to read "The Price Of Dick" first them move on to "Memorizing You".As Alex & Dan would say... Time to Aspire Higher
