41 - Turning Forty, by Mike Gayle
WHY I PICKED IT: It's by Mike Gayle
ELAPSED TIME: 2 days
RATING: Meh
Mike Gayle has a niche and a formula. Write about a bloke who is at a crossroads in life / relationships and take the reader through a sometimes funny, sometimes poignant tale that ends well. It'll never change your life, but it'll serve as lighthearted entertainment.
Don't know if it's because the book is hitting too close to home (almost 40, no real plan), or if the book is just a bit less than everything else of his... but I did not enjoy reading this book.
This blog is a simple review of every book that I read... For all books I’ll tell you why I picked it, how long it took me to read it, and give it a rating (burn it, not good, meh, good, very good, and required reading). I ask (encourage?) all readers of my blog to post their thoughts of any of the books in my comments :). Thanks!
