oh this book had me giggling and feeling better in increasing amounts all the way through. the character and story is full of so much messy chaos. but somehow in all the best ways. should i be laughing or finding it so fun to watch a man laugh descend into possible turmoil? yes yes i should because read on and you will do the same. if i didnt laugh for him id cry. so i laughed. i cant really describe the plot of this book without giving the bits away that would be obvious in a review form. and i want you all to meet them when you do...fresh and new and smiling like me.
just go in the adventure Ian takes you on. you will not regret it for a second. Charlie is adorable in all right and wrong ways.

Zu komplizierte Geschichte, zu ähnlich wie Bates, irischer Autor, hat mir nicht sehr gut gefallen. Im Ansatz OK, aber zu langfädig

Charlie Mellon’s misadventures are heartwarmingly amusing and some of his expressions and puns are laugh-out-loud funny. He has a big heart, Charlie, and is a free spirit in a world that doesn’t always play ball or is not often on his side, it seems. The plot is fast paced and Charlie is busy spinning several plates at once, plates that keep on being stopped by other people who are not necessarily well-intentioned towards poor Charlie. Aw… He’s surrounded by an eclectic ensemble of characters that interact with Charlie with good comic effect. It was very entertaining and I enjoyed learning that wu-wei is sometimes the way! 😄

This book was a bit of a fun and humorous adventure. Charlie's had quite the journey and the whole Adidas situation had me dying! This was the perfect comedy to brighten my weekend.

A light hearted and chaotic story of a middle aged man's misadventures. The plot meanders to a satisfying conclusion.
