The Walk by Richard Paul Evans

The Walk by Richard Paul Evans, 289 pages

Alan Christofferson is a successful business owner whose world collapses after his wife dies and his business partner betrays him. At the end of his rope, he decides to walk from Seattle to Key West, and learns to confront his grief from the people he meets on the road. It's also the first of a series, which, I'm guessing, will take Alan through different stages of his physical and emotional journey.

This was by no means a great book (or even that good of one), but it's quick and not as bad as I feared it would be. Fans of Mitch Albom's books would like this one, even if it is a bit subtler about its emotional manipulation.
