Just finished reading "The Opposite of Everything" by David Kalish and loved it!
Here's the link for it on Amazon. It will be available in March, but you can pre-order from WiDo Publishing here.
I couldn't put this book down! David grabs you by the hand and pulls you into Daniel Plotnick's story. I felt like I was present at his diagnosis, when he's standing on the brink of the George Washington Bridge, and at one truly crazy wedding. It is filled with ups and downs we can all relate to. Captivating! 5 Stars!
Here's a blurb I wrote for his promotion:
"One of the most thoroughly engaging and compelling stories I've read in a very long time -- a page-turner that coaxes you on through one man's journey, written so intimately, it's almost as if you were sneaking into his journal. Along the way, you will find yourself rooting for Daniel Plotnick as he teeters on the edge of the George Washington Bridge, endures his medical treatments, and closes painful doors and opens windows to new possibilities. As I read, I could visualize each masterfully scripted scene as if watching it on the big screen. The result, David Kalish’s first novel, is rich with hilarious cultural clashes. He’s taken meaty chunks of his life, thrown them into a stockpot with a Colombian blend of spice, and added a dash of kosher humor. All in all, an intimate, engaging and a joyful delight."
