MY FATHER’S LIST
How Living My Dad’s Dreams Set Me Free
ON THE CUSP OF MIDDLE AGE, A NEWLYWED JOURNALIST DISCOVERS AND FINISHES THE BUCKET LIST OF HER LATE FREE-SPIRITED FATHER
Fifty-four adventures in six years. That’s what thirty-eight-year-old journalist Laura Carney embarked on when she discovered her late father Mick’s bucket list.
Killed in a car crash when Laura was twenty-five, Mick seemed lost forever. My Father’s List is the story of how one woman—with the help of family, friends, and even strangers—found the courage to go after her own dreams after realizing those of a beloved yet mysterious man. This is a story about secrets—and the freedom we feel when we learn to trust again: in life, in love, and in a father’s lessons on how to fully live.
