It was a random selection from the train station but I really got into it and thought the premise was a really interesting one. It almost lapsed into self-help at times but I quite enjoyed that, although it made more sense afterwards when I read the author's biography.
My only disappointment was (and please don't flick to the back page if you come to read it) the last sentence. It felt really weak. Actually coming to think of it the closing chapters were a bit of a let-down insomuch as it felt that the author suddenly decided he had had enough and wanted to tie up the loose ends as quickly as possible.
Even so it was worth a read for the idea of the plot, and the unusual combination of fiction and life improvement advice in one.
It sounds intriguing! x
ReplyDeleteooh it really was - I am going to start including the information from the back cover in future. I don't like to write too much of a plot in case I give it away, but I'm worried its a bit too much of a mystery!
DeleteThanks for sharing, I might have a look for that one.x
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting! It's an interesting read :)
DeleteSlowly catching up with Laura's linkup. I have read the back cover of this book just now. It sounds like a good read and I'll add to my wish list. Thanks for the tip, I haven't heard of this author before.
ReplyDeleteit is a really interesting idea for a plot - I'd love to know what someone else thought!
