This is MY OPINION of the story.  Please read the synopsis and any and all content warnings given by the author before deciding on purchasing the book.  Please be kind and leave a review when finished reading.We all have heard the song “Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)” by Alan Jackson.  We all know it describes September 11, 2001.  I know exactly where I was.  I will never forget.  That day brings many memories for me.  I am sure it does for everyone.  What it didn’t do was question my faith.  It did for others, though.  It did for Alex.Alex is a man who is moving up in life.  Helping is parents live comfortably and enjoying the comforts money can buy.  He soon starts questioning his life after he continuously works 15 hour days and weekends though and wonders if there is more he could do.Alex lives at 777 Fifth Avenue.  This is where he meets Lenny, the Doorman.  Lenny is not usually shy about voicing his opinion or giving out information.  The more Alex gets to know Lenny the more he starts to wonder how Lenny knows all these random facts.Alex is a self-professed Atheist but Lenny is making Alex think of spirituality.  Is there a higher being?  Can Lenny really be this smart?  How can he know things that are happening around the world?Alex wants to change his life but doing so will cause a drastic pay cut.  Alex’s dad is not too happy with that but Lenny tells Alex he will make the change in 10 months.So, where was Alex on September 11, 2001?  Running late to work…..why?  This would be the first time he was ever late.  Alex really begins to think about things after this…..The Doorman is a book that will make you think.  It will make you question your beliefs.  It will make you make a choice at the end….The Doorman is an amazing story and will leave you with one question at the end…Who is Lenny?
