Thank you for your comment. Yes, I liked what the author was trying to do - it just fell a little short of the mark, in my view.Dael Reader wrote: ↑11 Nov 2018, 11:35 I think this is the kind of friendship story we see most often with women as the protagonists. One about men taking time to deepen their friendship could be interesting. But it also sounds like this book leaves a little bit to be desired in terms of writing style. Another good idea lacking great execution. Thanks for this detailed review.

Thank you for your comment. I love a good trip too!Bianka Walter wrote: ↑13 Nov 2018, 01:36As I was reading your review, I wanted to join Bill and Allen on their trip. Although, I'm a sucker for any trip. I think it's great that you could relate to a lot of their journey. I'm also a little jealous.Julie Green wrote: ↑28 Oct 2018, 10:04 I know this because, as I was reading the book, I wanted to join Bill and Allen on their trip.
Wonderful review
This was nearly very good. It's a shame it doesn't quite get there - I was willing it to get better as I was reading it.

It is a good question. I think it is because the simplistic writing ran throughout the book so it had a greater impact on me that the specific positive elements. I might have made that clearer in my review. Thank you for your commentSahani Nimandra wrote: ↑28 Nov 2018, 23:23 Only 2 stars? Hmm! I'm sorry I really like to know your opinion, just because the writing is simple you deduct a point is a bit too much, I mean if the writing is simply then it's easy to understand, but I wish to know your reason for this point? Thank you for your detailed review!
