Review title: Didn't work for me
Product review: The title of the book is intriguing, though it sort of leaks the punch line. It could have grabbed potential readers by making them wonder if the duo survives or not. Anyway, a father and son dive to their deaths.First, the author did not make the father and son seem particularly likeable. I thought their constant fighting and bickering was more of a turn off. Second, you wonder if the deaths could have been averted; what could be interpreted by some as courage looks to others like foolhardiness. Third, you wonder at times whether it is the author's primary intent to write about the father and son or about himself. It's almost like he's thinking, "I'd like to tell people my story and the perfect vehicle to hook them with is the death of this father and son."I'll admit, the writing is fine and I did keep reading, but the book left me with a bit of a sour feeling in my stomach.
