I liked Daniel the most. He was always straight forward and honest. He gave the best advice. But I liked other characters also they all have some good things.

I like the four characters but Sam is my favourite. Sam is well disciplined and humble.

All four characters were good but my favourite would be Alec. He had a reckless life but he didn't let it dampen his spirit.

I agree! Each of the characters was very 'human'; they each had strengths and flaws, but I felt that Daniel was the most well-rounded and just a general nice guy.

Daniel was my favorite character because he was the most self-aware and the most honest.

It has to be Sam. There might not have been a Man Mission if not for him in the first place. Not very fond of Alec though.

Daniel is a great guy. My favorite character would be Sam. Oh wow, he was well developed. Sam is a nice fellow. Sam is funny and nice. When I read books, I will humor and relief. Sam has shown that in his role.

My favourite would be the level-headed Daniel. He seemed the most sensible to me. I liked the moment when he hugged the main character and the way he handled his marriage.

Eric; is my favourite character in this novel. Things did not aline at a fast pace for him, but he eventually settled. This character inspired me. Stick to your intuitions they always pay with time.

I have also loved Sam, his witty sense of humor is catching, "and for reasons none of us can understand, the lovely lady seems to be genuinely in love with you."

I think all the men are presented to highlight their redeeming qualities and then those qualities seem easily forgotten: Daniel is really in love with his wife and is extremely together, Sam loves life, it seems, and he is adventurous, he is a manly man but he is also seemingly kind, the narrator has many good qualities although I think he doesn't choose to focus on them so much, and Alec, the reader is continually reminded has a six-pack, still. And still yet again. I would have to pick Daniel because he is a nice mix between geek and jock. You, or at least I forgot that he was athletic (this was mentioned at the beginning of the book) because he takes the role of the "organizer".

Who was your favorite one out of the four? I loved them all, but I think that Sam might have been my favorite. I loved his humor and sense of adventure. I also think he had some really good character development has he dealt with becoming a father and then losing his own. I liked watching him mature from a boy into a man. This was certainly a fantastic book!
I didn't have a favourite. I think they all were portrayed as humans having both strengths and flaws.
