Crossroads Road: A Novel par Jeff Kay
Cette critique a été rédigée pour LibraryThing Member Giveaways.
I started this book twice and was not able to finish it either time (though I got as far as 1/3 the second time). Stories about terrible people being terrible hold very little interest for me. This is not to say I want Pollyanna characters in the stories I read: far from it. Flawed characters are great, but I draw a line at bigotry on every page. Seriously, this book is incredibly full of sexism, ablism, and racism. Yes, one character in particular is called out as being especially terrible, but our POV character is just as bad. Given that the tone of this book is anti-PC culture, I can only imagine that this was written for an audience of Fox News fans in mind. If you enjoy hatefulness and hateful people, then by all means, read this book. Otherwise, don’t waste your time.… (plus d'informations)

Money makes people act strangely as demonstrated by the characters in Kay’s novel. He does a fine job of showing how self-interest is a lot easier to indulge when you have money. As one would expect, the character have shallow relationships and lack redeemable qualities. There are certain segments and phases that will intrigue the reader, but overall it leaves a lot to be desired.

This was a humorous, hard-to-put-down book. The characters are memorable and the plot is new. However, the main character Jovis is hard to love. He's funny but as Ben puts it he's smug. He's Me. Know It All. Still, the book has lots of funny moments.

An extremely humorous look a one man’s wife and her family of unique characters.
His mother-in-law wins the lottery and decides to build a cul-de-sac for her family to live next to her, and give each of the $2 million dollars. Would you be willing to pick up your family and move next to your mother-in-law knowing she paid for the house?
Add to the mix a collection of siblings and their spouses, each of whom has their own trait, earth child, obese beyond healthy, etc.
A definite read for those want a laugh at what some people will do for money.… (plus d'informations)
