âAs he did in Marley, Grogan makes readers feel they have a seat at the family dinner tableâ¦.4 stars.â
âPeopleJohn Grogan, author of the phenomenal #1 New York Times bestseller, Marley & Me, once again takes readers into his past, his memories, and his heart in The Longest Trip Homeâa funny and poignant memoir of faith, family, and identity. A New York Times bestseller in its own right, The Longest Trip Home has earned glowing accolades from the critics (âGenuinely heartrending,â âNew York Times âWry and witty,â âWashington Post; âEntertaining, funny, and, best of all, always honest at its core,â âSt. Louis Post-Dispatch). And, just as Marley & Me was more than simply âa dog book,â John Groganâs Longest Trip is much, much more than your typical story of a boyâs coming-of-age.
