There must be a better way to soothe loneliness without jumping on a roller coaster, to feel affirmation without putting on a show, to find true love. It wasn?t just about finding the right girl, though that helped. Once he found her, he had to know what to do?or?who to be.?A manipulative control freak? A successful workaholic?

And it all feels like a conversation with the best kind of friend: smart, funny, true, important.?Scary Close?is Donald Miller at his best.
