Review title: A letdown
Product review: I've had bad luck with Hornby. I became familiar with him through movie adaptions of his earlier work. They were excellent movies with characters I liked and related to, so I can only assume they are based on very fine novels. This led me to pick up the next Hornby book that came along. The premise appealed to me and I was entertained by this book's opening pages, but as it moved along it seemed Hornby had less and less to say and nowhere else to go with the plot. His breezy writing style made this book easy enough to read so I did make it through to the end. But I was sad to have been introduced to the prose of such an obviously talented writer by such a forgettable novel. No doubt he has more top notch books left in him, but this one certainly won't be the novel to base his eventual legacy on.
