The Grand Tour by Adam O'Fallon Price
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The writing was clever and the characters were memorable, but in a mostly unlikeable way. I say mostly because the main character, an author, is portrayed with an over-the-top personality, always with a pithy quip. When you get tired of the alcohol-driven quips, the author chose to expose a character’s weakness and learning and striving to better, or at least explain himself. I liked how the author handled these transitions. Overall, an OK story.
