Title: One of the worst books I've ever tried to read
Review: I finally gave up on this mess after multiple tries. I'm sympathetic to the subject and the subject matter, and I was looking forwarding to a moving but humourous read. Boy, what a disappointment. For one thing, the author's copious self-pity mixes poorly with his attempts at humour. For another thing, it's just not a very well-written book; very pedestrian and absolutely no panache. Don't waste your time on this one. (P.S. Amazon, please add a zero to your rating system. My rating of one is waaay too high for this one!)
