a well told tough story of love and relationship - very life like, doesn't read like fiction, not sure why it matters, after all that's a great sign of good fiction. here though, it means that sometimes it's just too familiar, too close to how things often are.
above is a good reason to read, i tihnk.
on the "please enough" side, i'm getting tired of having to read every scene from two or more angles. it seems to be a trend in many of the recent fiction i've read, and it's no longer refreshing. it's great if you have an agenda to remind all us, humans, that the way we experience an encounter, an exchange, is just one of many... but that's not why i read books.
