Over break, I had the opportunity to read Same Kind of Different As Me by Denver Moore and Ron Hall. This book is hands down the best book I have read in 2009 thus far. Same Kind of Different is a heart-warming and touching real-life story that will make you laugh, cry, and prudently consider the difference one person can make in the life of another.
Here is the excerpt from the back cover - A dangerous, homeless drifter who grew up picking cotton in virtual slavery. An upscale art dealer accustomed to the world of Armani and Chanel. A gutsy woman with a stubborn dream. A story so incredible no novelist would dare dream it. It begins outside a burning plantation hut in Louisiana . . . and an East Texas honky-tonk . . . and, without a doubt, in the heart of God. It unfolds in a Hollywood hacienda . . . an upscale New York gallery . . . a downtown dumpster . . . a Texas ranch. Gritty with pain and betrayal and brutality, this true story also shines with an unexpected, life-changing love.
I guarantee you'll love this book. If you don't - I'll buy it back from you!
