If you like to read books for the author's choice of words, sentence structure and slick-witted humor (you think to yourself, ah, yes!), then you will likely love this book. It is a short read and at the end you find yourself wishing it kept going, but still somehow the perfect quick dip into fiction.

It is written in first person narrative (which can be a reason to read it right there) and the author is analyzing his own mental health after being left by his girlfriend. His analysis is borderline absurd and yet universal. He actually thinks the thoughts most of us are afraid to dissect to that level. (A hilarious account of men who wear turtleneck undershirts. Another of why he didn't want to replace his light bulb and the revelation that led to him finally purchasing a new one.)

The quick novel follows the "Mystery Guest" for over ten years as he moves from one tangent of his life to another. A lovely ending ties it all up nicely. A delicious little read!
