Review of "Don't worry, he won't get far on foot" on 'Goodreads'

The only negative thing I can say about this book is that I wish it were longer. I really could barely put it down. It's a touching and engrossing story of John Callahan's addiction, paraplegia, recovery, rehabilitation, and ultimately his ability to harness his demons and hitch them to his wheelchair for a joyride.
