Howard Michael Gould

I was ready for a smart witted /sharp tongued read. Which for other readers, it seems that is the case with this book. Sadly, I did not have the same experience. Although, I did see a tiny glimmer of this in the lead character, Charlie. Charlie is a bit unconventional. Yet, this is what makes him interesting. I just wished that the rest of the characters were as interesting. If they had been than my feelings about this book would have been different. This was not for a lack of effort. I was reading this book just fine for the first half of the book but still no improvements for me. After this the last half of the book was more of a skimming effect.

I do give Mr. Gould his dues as he has a good goal of where he wants to take his characters. This book may not have been a home run for me but I am curious to see what Mr. Gould comes out what next and I would try another book from him. This will not be my "last look" at Mr. Gould.… (altro)
