Title: Wait for the Paperback
Review: It must be the fall because all the Iraq books from part-time soldiers are out in time for school for the college kids and the urban elite to drool over. This is one book of many (My War, I Love my Rifle, This Man's Army) memoirs written way too soon. O'Brien waited 20 years before writing Things He Carried. The reason I come down on this one is that while the others are brash and undisciplined, at least they have a point. One Bullet plays to all audiences without taking a stand. I liked the writing and the opening, but darned if even a single sentence stayed with me a day after putting it down. This book cost $24. It's got all the right reviewers and background. But for anyone who's been in the military, the question will be..."And?" Wait until it's out on paperback before you blow any cash on this.
