2.0 out of 5 stars Pass on this one, Nov 11 2009

By	NorthVan Dave (North Vancouver, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

I wanted to like this book. I really really did. But try as I might, there were just too many obstacles to make this a novel that I would recommend to anyone. Where oh where to begin.

Do I start with the writing style that jumps from present to past and back again without so much as a warning to the reader. One minute you're reading about something taking place in between our nameless protagonist and his roommate, the next you're reading about him and his girlfriend/wife, then you're reading about him and his present situation in Cape Cod. More than once I was a little confused, trying to figure out just who the nameless narrator (who stays nameless through the entire story by the way) was talking to.

As if the confusion surrounding who the narrator was talking to wasn't enough, I found there to be very little of substance to the novel. It was like reading 275 pages of nothing. Oh sure. Author Pernice throws in some cultural names/events (such as the ever hip Sub Pop records) in an attempt to resonate with readers. But the attempt feels feeble and forced. And, to be honest, the attempts add absolutely nothing to the storyline. It reminds me of the guys at parties who walk up and start talking about their Porches. Never mind the fact that everyone else was talking about the Canucks.

In short. Avoid this book. Don't read it. You'll be glad you did.
