The idea of the story is good, but the author tends to restate the same over and over…not actually thinking through.
Spoiler-grandpa is going to die of cancer…he actually dies saving his family. Ben, main character tells his children after the death…he was dying…nothing specific so son Joel says what are you saying…or something like that. Sorry, if I was explaining to my children, I would have specified…grandpa was dying from cancer, not just dying!
All the characters are bland and rehash the same crap in their heads…more character development would be greatly appreciated!
