This book was chosen for my book club read. I tried really,really hard to get through it,and had high hopes for it,considering it was compared to the unlikely pilgrimage of Harold Fry in its blurb. However I failed to finish it,and fail to see how it is similar to Rachel Joyce's book.
Reading the blurb it had a lot of promise, but for me failed to deliver, and i didnt even manage to get to the part where the road trip begins. In my opinion getting to page 185, i had expected the story to have gone somewhere but with it not even having set off yet I decided to call it a day.
The author had some very good ideas of what he wanted to write, and some bits I did enjoy, I just felt there was too much going back and forth, and the characters had too big back stories to keep me interested. Which is a shame because i would have liked to have read more about Bob.
I wanted to give the book two out of ten, with me not finishing it. But because of the bits i did enjoy ive given it a four.
