Review title: Cute at times, but mostly boring
Product review: I really wanted to like this book. I got the audio version. I was expecting witty commentary on America's consumer culture and self-obessive nature. What I got was long, meandering stories about things like midnight treasure hunts in NYC that were anti-climatic, and the mildly amusing tale of the author applying for U.S. citizenship. It had potential, but just never got rolling. His penchant for being self-desparaging and sounding melancholy also got old very quickly.
