Title: Even if he said it were fiction...
Product review: [...] it's just not a quality read. The protagonist was not admirable at all to me, but seems to have been created to be sympathized with. However, his stubbornness and hostility towards well-meaning people made him as unlikeable as could be in my eyes. The style of the novel also seems to be pretentious, as if James Frey were attempting to be avant-garde in ignoring conventional punctuation and paragraph structure. His over usage of the letter "I" not only added to the selfishness of his narrator, but it also degraded the style of the novel. Though there are good points in the story and some noteworthy things that he does with the rehab experience that most people wouldn't otherwise witness, I wouldn't say this is a classic by any means. Frey has a way to go before he hits anything near that mark.But if you're all plot, then maybe this is a good read for you.
