Title: Not what I was looking for...
Product review: Wally Lamb is a talented writer, and as I read this book, I really couldn't believe a man wrote this and wrote with the raw emotion of a female writer. But the second I finished the book, I knew I am not a fan of "coming of age" types of books, maybe its because I'm young, I'm not sure, but the whole thing was so depressing for me, thats it, depressing. Not the kind of book that really changes your outlook on anything, it was empty and left no lasting impression on me except the sad-sorry feeling I felt for the protagonist. I thought leaving a lasting impression was the whole point of having "coming of age" books...
