I haven't yet seen the movie (wanted to) and this was available through my library's ebook lending system so I thought I'd give it a try. The main character (18 years old) can drink George and Martha (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?) under the table. It almost made me sick how much this kid drinks. Just the same, he's likable for most of the book. I don't want to spoil anything so I'll just say I was hoping for a bit of a different ending...quick, enjoyable read though. Wow, so really that's the end? The book is well written and the characters are interesting, but the ending is far too anti-climatic. I like Sutter, I genuinely do, that's why I feel Tharp does him a huge disservice by glamorizing his alcoholism. "God's own drunk" really disgusted me at several points throughout the story. The characters' reactions to the car crash felt far too nonchalant to be believable. This coming-of-age yarn has great potential, but falls short of spectacular or even "spanktakular." sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
