Framily: Friends Considered Family

'Sports is like war without the killing.' 'Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together. 'Ted Turner and President Woodrow Wilson have enlightened us with their innermost thoughts regarding sports and friendship.

Framily (friends considered family), in similar fashion to the first two books of the trilogy, '8' Center Field in New York, 1951-1957 and Dopey Bastid coalesces sports and friendship in a unique way.

Three friends since childhood, now adults and all reconnected with their teenage girlfriends and starting families; share the spotlight as the recollection of notable sporting events come to life. Relive accounts of the NCAA tournament with Magic and Bird, the USA Olympic hockey team miracle in 1980, the Mets World Series victory over the Red Sox in 1986, the Giants Super Bowl XXI triumph, and many others as you laugh out loud, perhaps shed a tear and reflect on the true meaning of friendship.

The Kirkus Review of Framily was highly complementary of the author... 'Saulino has developed a smart way of storytelling via weaving his characters plotlines together with contemporary sports events... it's an eye-catching and inventive strategy... this novel will appeal to anyone who enjoys a good story about good friends.'
