<\/p> $\"\"$ I have no doubt that Joshua Braff<\/a> is a very talented writer. After all, he has a novel out and has appeared in at least one literary magazine. After reading \u201c The Unthinkable Thoughts of Jacob Green<\/a>,\u201d I can only come to one conclusion about the 2004 book.\n

He\u2019s very lucky to have a famous brother.<\/p>\n

That, of course, is Scrubs star Zach Braff<\/a>. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a coincidence that \u201cJacob Green\u201d came out just a few months after the younger Braff hit the big screen with his movie \u201c Garden State<\/a>.\u201d What a cool story, some agent or editor probably thought. Two brothers with different creative talents on the national stage.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think Joshua\u2019s book was horrible. It\u2019s just that I really didn\u2019t get much out of it. Jacob is Jewish and dealing with growing up. His father has a temper. His mother has other interests. His father pushes him and his older brother to embrace Judaism, and it works about as well as you\u2019d expect with any teenager and religion. That brings back the temper and the mother\u2019s interest in pursuing education and a career.<\/p>\n

All in all, it just seemed a bit bland and flat. I didn\u2019t think the babysitter tempting Jacob or the father flying off the handle really amounted to much of a plot, but that\u2019s what you got. And if you got the same hardcover edition I bought, you also received at least three typos. I\u2019m not perfect, but that just proved me to me that this book was more marketing and less substance.<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
