One Last Thing Before I Go
by Jonathan Tropper
Having just come off another Tropper novel, "This Is Where I Leave You," of which I loved, I was excited to see what else Tropper had to offer. After spending many hours in my car and on walks listening to this book, I ended up being a bit disappointed when it was all said and done. The premise, a middle-aged man with a faulty aorta needs surgery to live decides to forgo the surgery and make the most of the life he has left. He's really botched up his life over the last several years, and this is a comedic tale of how he is trying to fix that. It was no doubt entertaining at times, but I did not find myself wanting to listen to it like I wanted to listen to "This Is Where I Leave You." I liked the concept, but often was not entertained by the tale that went along with it. Like "This Is Where I Leave You," Tropper ends this story ambiguously, and I found myself wishing he had drawn some conclusions and answered some questions. I liked it okay, I just didn't love it!
