Savages by Don Winslow

3.0

So this turned out to be a completely guilty pleasure. The writing was rather insipid and reminded me of some of the pedestrian Maxim articles I've read in my lifetime. The testosterone and machismo was dripping off of each page, but that was the conceit that must be made in order to enjoy the book. That said, the story was very compelling and addictive enough that writing eventually faded into the background. An extremely fun story that would have been a crime to leave in book form. It seems to be the quintessential cross country flight type book.
