You Are Here by David Nicholls

emotional sad slow-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Another dud! I think this kind of relationship probably happens a lot in real life, but I found it frustrating that the characters seem to accept whatever is in front of them. They aren’t very likable, and they seem only to want to try for what’s within easy reach. They are innately lazy in terms of risk taking and only take small steps when nudged or cajoled. I especially dislike the two main characters, Michael in particular, because he seemed to try to have his cake and eat it too, and ultimately, he gets his way. I suppose these characters all sort of deserve each other. Ugh!
