Vic’s Pics

This week Vicki chose a novel by Nicholas Sparks called “TWO BY TWO”.

We will all make it through, two by two. At thirty-two Russell Green has it all, a stunning wife, a lovable six year old daughter, a successful career as an advertising executive and an expensive home in Charlotte. He is living the dream and his marriage to the bewitching Vivian is the center of that dream. But underneath the shiny surface of this perfect existence fault lines are beginning to appear and no one is more surprised than Russ when he finds every aspect of the life he took for granted turned upside down.

In a matter of months Russ finds himself without a job or wife, caring for his young daughter London while struggling to adapt to a new and baffling reality. Trying to launch his own business while grappling with the demise of his marriage. The only thing he knows for sure is that London must be sheltered from the consequences of these radical changes. Throwing himself into the wilderness of single parenting, Russ embarks on a journey at once terrifying and rewarding-----one that will test his abilities and his emotional resources beyond anything he ever imagined.

“TWO BY TWO” is available now at the Big Sandy Library.
