Review title: Wanted to like it--didn't.
Product review: The sentences were so well crafted, if only they'd come together to reveal a story worth the read. By the middle of the book, the author's self-loathing whining had me wishing I could just stop reading it. Alas, I work in a retirement community and had to finish the book--it's this month's book club book. I really tried to like the book, but it was hard for me to get through the endless (and disjointed) nights at the bar. And the author's inability to stand up and be an adult was tiresome in the end. I think the sequel to this would be a much more interesting (and much less whiny) read. I lost interest midway through and skimmed the rest so that I could lead the meeting.
