Review title: Characters are boring. not enough plot
Product review: I was getting fed up with the book, noting that I was halfway through it and nothing had happened. The main character is boring and much too much time is spent on proving how boring he is. The other characters (except Muriel) were not very interesting either. The relationship beteen Macon and Muriel is simply not believable, based on their personalites.So much more could have been done with the plot. I expect the movie would have accomplished this or it would never have been made into one.For those who have said that the characters are quirky, I suggest that you check out books by William Deverell (eg. April Fool), where the characters are considerably more unique.Of the 7 books I read during my holiday, I rate The Accidental Tourist at the bottom of the barrel.
