Unconditional by Stephan Kogon is an amazing read. Matthew is a 25 year old batchelor who spends most of his time with his best friend Sherry and her husband Kenny.

While chatting with Monica , a friend of Sherry's Matthew receives a phone call that his older brother Paul not only has committed suicide but also has left him a premature baby, a three day old girl named Allie. Matthew is now faced with a choice, he can walk away and have the baby go to foster care, or become a father immediately.

Once he meets Allie, his mind is instantly made up. Matthew along with his friends, decided to navigate single parenting. The book then takes us through the next 18 years of Allie's life.

This book is the most heartfelt thing I have read in a long time. I love books that make you feel something, and this book definitely does that!

Thank you Stephen Kogon for partnering with NetGalley. I received an advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

Lorsque j'ai lu le résumé en français de ce roman sur netgalley il m'a beaucoup tenté ! Par contre lorsque ma demande a été acceptée j'ai été surprise de découvrir que le roman était en anglais.
Or mon nouveau d'anglais ne me permet pas de lire un roman entier. Je ne sais pas ce qui a pu se produire...

this book was just such a break your heart but in a good way book. because its so full of tender,warm,beautiful but in the deepest ways that you truly do feel in your own heart. there is also hard decisions, hard time and sacrifices we make for those we love and those we come to love. and the real love, boy oh boy they make you able to move mountains and i truly felt this throughout this book.
i then looked up the author to see if i could read more from him. and you must go and read what he wrote on his website about the book. because it seemed impossible but i love the book even more after that! writing must be like a beautiful illness, the way these plots can come to them. i dont think we COULD all be authors because i certainly dont have those kind of plots running through my veins. i only wish i did.
this books was amazing.
