Review by Sarah A. (310112) Rating (9/10) Review
by Sarah A. From the reunion of the two protagonists to paradise in Thailand; from skiing in Shangri-la to striking gold with the dotcoms; and from scraping to survive in New York City to the culture shock and welcome in the homeland - plus many more - all lead up to a totally unexpected ending. Along the path of this whimsical odyssey are sprinkled social commentaries with very clever turn of phrases and wordage in just the right dosage. The metaphors are simply jaw-dropping and each one made me wonder, how did the author come up with that? The superb imagery and dialogue shows that he knows exactly what he's talking about with respect to places, character types, and events. The voice is fresh and unique, and the tension, suspense, and romance are so gripping that right from the beginning, the story held me, and during the last half, I just couldn't put the novel down.
Told in the second and third person POVs, the quirky plot unfolds
via parallel stories that intersect in an unforgettable climax
that is both funny and tragic, and in keeping with the overall
theme of entertainment. I strongly recommend this book. |
