'The Millionaires' revolves around brothers JT and Roland Cole, both into riches with a I-can-do-whatever-I want attitude. J.T. is a banker with an attitude too big for Glenville, Tennessee, and Roland is running for a governor's seat despite the odds.
I have to be honest here, I just could not force myself to get through this book. I made it through about 60 pages and was just too tired to continue. I don't always agree with Publishers Weekly, but in this case I feel their review was right on the dot - I was too tired too care about the story. Majors has an odd writing style and I wasn't sure whether he was trying to write a novel or a screenplay. He went back and forth between the two, the writing was consistently erratic and all over the place, and the VERY long sentences just drove me crazy. His sentence structure was often so distracting that I could not even see the story behind it.
So I don't know - maybe this book is an acquired taste, and maybe I'll pick it up later, but I just thought it was too frustrating of a read to be enjoyable.
