New Book Review:![]()
Life, & Death, & Giants by Ron Rindo will be on my favorites list for the year. I’m so glad I had the opportunity to listen to it thanks to Macmillan Audio. It was the title and the cover art that attracted me to this book. I was so curious about what the title meant and if the giant in the book was something literal or abstract.![]()

It’s no secret, and you’ll learn right away that the main character, Gabriel, is real, and that he weighed eighteen pounds at birth. Sadly, he was born an orphan and those in his Amish community have kept his condition pretty localized within their Wisconsin community. Gabriel’s grandparents keep to their strong Amish faith and Gabriel lives on a figurative seesaw of the English world versus the Amish world.![]()

Besides learning about the Amish community and the incredible storytelling, is that this story is told from the point of views of Hannah – Gabriel’s grandmother, Thomas Kennedy – the vet that delivered Gabriel – Billy Walton a local bartender and by Gabriel’s high school football coach. What an amazing way to show how much of an effect Gabriel has on the entirety of his community as well as everyone he meets. Oh, that includes animals as well, he has a profound connection with them.![]()

Surprisingly, Rindo is a noted short story author and this book is his first act in novel writing. I hope he writes more novels and continues to impress readers everywhere. If you’re looking for something different and extremely well written, I’d give this one a try. It’s a story filled with grace, humility, love and grief. @rrindoauthor @macmillan.audio @macmillanusa ![]()
