rpych2 's review for:

Supermarket by Bobby Hall

3.0

---

There were a lot of negative reviews on this book, but I still wanted to read it because Logic is one of my favorite rappers. But I held off for a while because of those reviews, and I wish that I had read it sooner because even though it wasn’t great, I had a good time reading it. The story borrowed a bit from other classics, mainly Fight Club, which is why many people (including myself) guessed that twist almost immediately. But one of the things that I really loved about it was the themes about mental health and overcoming it, especially considering what the author has gone through in his own life. Was this great? No, but I enjoyed it and I feel like it was a decent debut that shows promise for Bobby’s next book (if there is one) to be better.
