Why read it?
1 author picked Hit Man as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Lawrence Block has written, I don’t know, 33,000 books? That’s inspiration alone. But in Keller, the mononymous title character of Hit Man and star of numerous short stories, he compels readers to root for someone who’s not exactly committing good deeds.

From Joseph's list on inspired me to become a writer and my son a reader.
