Title: I could feel my nails growing...
Review: I purchased this latest Irving edition at the airport knowing that I had a ridiculously long flight ahead and nothing to read. I was excited to see a shorter work than usual from this author and knew I could finish it before I reached my destination. My God, was I ever BORED!! At no time during the flight did I feel one ounce of anything for a single character in this book. The writing was just as dull as the plot and I think Mr. Irving was having another midlife crisis while writing this one. The Readers Guide in the back of the book is more interesting. It attempts to explain why Mr. Irving is patting himself on the back for penning this disaster. He boasts of his incredible use of wit and humor, but it fails to come across the pages. Stick to bears, wrestlers, and whatever; but give up on the humor.
