AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK | A USA TODAY BESTSELLER
#1 New York Times bestselling author Wally Lamb, celebrated for two prior Oprah’s Book Club selections, returns with an exceptional third pick, an “incandescent” (Oprah Daily) novel following a young father grappling with unbearable tragedy as he searches for hope, redemption, and the possibility of forgiveness.
Corby Ledbetter is struggling. New fatherhood, the loss of his job, and a growing secret addiction have thrown his marriage to his beloved Emily into a tailspin. And that’s before he causes the tragedy that tears the family apart. Sentenced to prison, Corby struggles to survive life on the inside, where he bears witness to frightful acts of brutality but also experiences small acts of kindness and elemental kinship with a prison librarian who sees his light and some of his fellow offenders, including a tender-hearted cellmate and a troubled teen desperate for a role model. Buoyed by them and by his mother’s enduring faith in him, Corby begins to transcend the boundaries of his confinement, sustained by his hope that mercy and reconciliation might still be possible. Can his crimes ever be forgiven by those he loves?
An “immersive novel of redemption” (The New Yorker), The River Is Waitingis another “soul-wrenching” (NPR) masterpiece from celebrated author Wally Lamb.

Dogs would not even put in their mouth!
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Large
Toy is rock hard. Have seen toys like that before, but the smell is disgusting. I have 5 dogs, and while this was purchased for one in particular, none of the dogs would chew on it. Only one put it in his mouth, and then immediately spit it out. My dogs are not picky or finicky but none would have anything to do with it. Total waste of money.

8 months later, my dog's favorite toy by far!
Color: Ring, Color: Ring
My dog has a LOT of toys, and this is her favorite. We've had it for 8 months and it still holds up. She likes to pull at the stitching (and has removed a bunch), but the toy still holds together surprisingly well. It's a great value for the money.

Not good for aggressive chewers
Color: Ring, Color: Ring
My aggressive chewer had pieces of leather and felt chewed off within 10 minutes. Had to take it away from him because I didn’t want him swallowing them.

It's a do-not for me
Color: Ring
Bought for my doodle and the toy lasted less then two days. Not very durable. Inside the toy were layers of what looked like felt. Took it away from dog
