Book 20: Everything Changes - Jonathan Tropper

AUDIOBOOK read by Scott Brick

This is my third Tropper book in the last 9 months, and they’re starting to run together a little.  Everything Changes follows a similar story path to The Book of Joe and This is Where I Leave You as all three focus on a a main character in his 30s whose life is going through dramatic change.  In Everything Changes, Zack King has a job he hates, might have cancer, and is in love with the widow of his dead best friend even though he’s engaged to another woman.  To top it all off, his deadbeat dad shows up and throws the whole family for a spin.  Like the previous books, Tropper does a masterful job of telling the story of an imperfect man who learns how to make the transition from selfish boy to less-selfish man.  And, like the others I’ve read, I very much enjoyed this narrative and found myself attached to a number of the characters.  The book is both funny and sad and has just enough of both to make it truly engaging.  To top it off, the audiobook is read by the fantastic Scott Brick, who is one of my all-time favorites.
