Welcome to Litsy!

I guess I'm in the minority so far, but I enjoyed this. And even though I would agree with the prior reviews that it wasn't particularly comedic, it was a fun read. #2025Book13

When the #TOBlonglist came out, this one looked right up my alley. A man gets a new blood test that tells him he has a tendency for criminality and will kill someone, but it‘s funny. Problem is, it‘s not so funny (but thinks it is), then takes a wild turn away from the premise halfway through and doesn‘t hold together. I wish I had bailed.

Serendipitously, I was reading this #toblonglist choice when it was announced. It was what I needed at the moment. Offbeat weird funny book that isn‘t sticking with me at all. I liked it, but you don‘t need to run out and read it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

A mild-mannered man gets a blood test that predicts a life of criminality in his future. He immediately goes and shoplifts gardening shears. Things just get wackier from there. #tob25

The title states it as a comedy but it‘s just an overall odd subject. A brief read that kept me interested to see what happens to the main character. I didn‘t love it or hate it. Quite different than I‘ve read before. A good length as any longer and I would have probably lost interest.
