| Re: Fifty book challenge 2009
It's been a slow start to the year.
1. 'Bright Shiny Morning' by James Frey.
- I found this to be like a 12A version of a Brett Easton Ellis book. Reminded me a lot of Less Than Zero, but less cynical. A bit too disjointed for my liking, it's basically a bunch of short stories mixed in with random facts about LA, with the author jumping from storyline to storyline without any form of proper narrative. Some of the stories/characters I loved, some of them I didn't. I think it would work a lot better if he had just made a collection of short stories in a more conventional format.
