I FINALLY finished A Prayer for Owen Meany while on vacay this week. It was a long read and it took me way too long to finish but I'm happy I made it through to the end. The story of Owen's faith is inspiring and I enjoyed that portion much more than the politics and history lesson.
"Owen Meany believed that “coincidence” was a stupid, shallow refuge sought by stupid, shallow people who were unable to accept the fact that their lives were shaped by a terrifying and awesome design – more powerful and unstoppable than the Yankee Flyer. (a train)"
— John Irving (A Prayer for Owen Meany)
