I was really impressed by this book, which may have come at least a little for not expecting much, especially anything deep. But there was a lot of complication in this little book. While he breaks the "show don't tell" mandate of creative writing classes, I liked his style of writing. Though I felt the ending was missing...something...the rest of the book more than makes up for it.
