Book Suggestion

I just read an amazing book while I was away called "The Tender Bar" by JR Moehringer.

It is a memoir about his life growing up in Manhasset, NY...a wealthy area...as a poor kid being raised by a single mom going in and out of living with his grandparents. His uncle works at the local watering hole and it tells of how the men at the bar became his father figures and more. It is so well written...I couldn't put it down. I will bring it to the next book club but it is a suggestion for a next read. He is pulitzer prize winning journalist for the LA Times...I think everyone would enjoy this "coming of age" book.
