      The two most common complaints I have heard when discussing this book are also the two most common compliments I have heard it given; one being that the ending can be seen as relatively non-conclusive and the other being that none of the characters are easily pegged as "good" or "bad". My personal opinion is that Hornby presents some excellent characters here, but doesn't necessarily tell the best story.

    • Very good. I like his humor. He also wrote High Fidelity and About a Boy.

    • No, this story is not about redemption. No such thing exists in real life, anyway.

      If you want to kill yourself, go ahead; if you can't, then f$%king shut your mouth and live. Painful but true. But not many authors dare to tell the story this way.

      It is different. So I like it.
