solitude sunday

we spend time with a book on solitude sunday. my current book is stronger by jeff bauman with bret witter. stronger is the account of one of the 2013 boston marathon bombing victims. he was face-to-face with one of the terrorists as he was standing next to one of the brothers who committed the terrorist act. when the terrorist walked away, after a stare down with jeff, he left behind the backpack. before jeff could do anything, the bomb exploded. even through losing both legs at the knee and several other injuries, jeff worked with the fbi to help them identify the terrorist who, as he stood beside him, he described as "all business".  borrowed from a friend, i wasn't sure i would like this book. however, it is riveting. but a quick read as it's written style is very conversational.
