"Spinning" Review

I finally finished "Spinning" by Michael Baron. It took me longer than it should have. Why? Because I was otherwise occupied with purchasing a Nookcolor, and playing with it, when I should have been reading.


This was an interesting tale about a 29 year old, Dylan Hunter.  He was a man about town, no commitments...until early one morning an old girlfriend, Diane shows up on his doorstep, with her 3 year old daughter, Spring in tow. (No she is not Dylan's daughter) They stay with him for a few weeks, until Diane finds a job. They renew their friendship, and suddenly Diane is killed in a car accident, and in a blink of the eye, Dylan's life has changed completely.


There was alternately humorous and romantic, tragic, playful and dramatic 'Spinning' in this emotion-packed novel. It is the first book I have read by this author, and I really liked it. 


I know some have compared him to Nicholas Sparks, but, personally I like Michael's novel much better than Sparks novels. No paranormal surprises in Michaels book. I hated Sparks last two books because of the paranormal garbage he threw in them. I think Michael Baron is an author I will read again.


I am awarding this book 4****
