My Friend Leonard

Good book but definitely not as good as A Million Little Pieces. I read it while deer hunting and finished it in 3 or 4 days.

It followed James after rehab. It started with him in prison and onto Chicago where he found his girlfriend from rehab had committed suicide. He called on Leonard for help and Leonard made him eat a lot and had huge dinner parties. He also got James a job delivering briefcases. Leonard went from an illegal company and turned it into a legal one with the use of phone cards and foreign countries. James had a few girlfriends and all of them were super attractive and super successful because he is just that special... Turns out Leonard was gay and died of AIDS. He left all his money to James and to make sure Lilly's grave would be tended forever. Again, James was just that special.

Overall a good book but it was hard to get past James's ego at times.
