Journal Entry 2 by Vickyloo from Barry, Wales United Kingdom on Thursday, June 22, 2006
Hmmm...what to say about this novel. Hmmm again!

It didn't, at any point, make me laugh out loud or even stifle a giggle. I felt it tried very very hard to be an intelligent comedy and the effort was visible. There was a lot of boring narrative about the ins and outs of journalism that didn't interest me in the slightest. I kinda guessed the ending - not exactly but was close. Perhaps I didn't like it because mystery and crime are not genres I'm usually interested in (I made the mistake of being attracted by the pretty cover! lol)

Having said all this, I definitely would not say it is a bad book. I did enjoy it and didn't find that I had to labour it through to the end. I did want to know what had happened and I enjoyed the way that all the little stories were thrown in and twisted together. I liked knowing the little pieces of background information of how people's lives are intwined - like when Chris finds the mobile phone, you find out a little about the person who lost it, how and why.

So all in all, I would say that I find this book of average enjoyment. I would not recommend it but I would not say not to read it either. Rather non-emotive for me I suppose.

I think I will probably wild release this one but until I get round to it, if you want it, just PM me and I'll get it off in the post for you!
