I had just spent a week reading Vernon "God" Little, and it had been my second attempt at doing so.
I found it a very difficult book to read, mainly due to the Texan references - I still don't know what a pumpjack is!So when I finished I decided to go for something a little lighter....Adrian Mole, I'd read his first two books when I'd been at school, we were the same age and it felt a little like logging onto friends reunited and finding out how an old school mate was doing.
I finished all 450 pages in just over a day. Adrian's writing technique is pretty much the same as it was when he was 13, although he knows some bigger words now, and whilst he has always been rather

I found it a very difficult book to read, mainly due to the Texan references - I still don't know what a pumpjack is!So when I finished I decided to go for something a little lighter....Adrian Mole, I'd read his first two books when I'd been at school, we were the same age and it felt a little like logging onto friends reunited and finding out how an old school mate was doing.
I finished all 450 pages in just over a day. Adrian's writing technique is pretty much the same as it was when he was 13, although he knows some bigger words now, and whilst he has always been rather self-opinionated, he has now turned into the self centred snob he had always been fated to be.
We find him in the midst of a never-ending spending spree, in a relationship that he doesn't want to be in, but can never call off and all this when his eldest son who has recently joined the army is posted to Kuwait, just as the second Gulf conflict is about to kick off.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I reckon this is probably the literary equivalent of a Soap opera, trashy voyeurism and very easy to keep track of.
Saying that, I despise Soap operas, but this I could have kept reading this until Adrian collected his pension.
