Review title: Nice try, but...
Product review: ...this experiment did not work. I've read two of his other books, and they were a light, cute diversion -- not great literature, but entertainment. This novel isn't even that. The plot frequently goes nowhere, and has many loose ends that he never ties. The writing is trite, the observations pedestrian and cliched.
