Fletcher is just the sweetest, quirkiest dudebro ever, with his adorkable 'Hey, Dweeb!" He is really like an excited puppy. Very charming and likeable.
The Dweeb is the absolute dorkiest with his freckles and curly mop of hair, playing on his Mittenwald. I could see how perfectly they fit together. Back then, and even 2 years later. Add the Haggis to the mix, and they're like this perfect little family, where the individuals aren't really so perfect. But together they're bomb! :) To me perfection in relationships isn't measured by education, achievements or social stand and money. To me it's all about the connection. And they have it by heaps.
The characters are well-rounded, with unique voices, they're absolutely not flat and not forgettable.
The dialogue is original, quirky and funny as hell, not boring or dull at all.
The description of musical stuff, about the orchestra and the different instruments were not overwhelming, it was explained quite simply, and it was understandable and even interesting (f-holes).
And I found the writing fabulous, not "just ok". Whoever said that probably read a different book than me.
The reason for the 4 star for me is the beginning. I can't really put my finger on why (first I just blamed my usual shitty Monday morning mood). I guess I just don't like to go backwards, though the best parts were when we got to see how they met, how Fletch invaded Roger's life. But I guess I just wanted to go forward with the story not back.
I had no problem with a sexless story, I didn't miss it, but I would've liked so much more kissing. :)
I recommend this book to those who like second chances, flawed characters and loads of humor.
PS: The only thing I don't understand yet is why Jeff the douche got to tell his story in the next installment and not Tommy or Marco.… (plus d'informations)
