I Play the Drums in a Band Called Okay by Toby Litt

3.0

Clap is the drummer in a band called okay. This book is full of short stories of the band while on tour, with family, relationships, births and deaths. I found it a bit slow at first and couldn't really see the point of the stories as I didn't know where they were going. But after a few more chapters I began to warm to the characters. The band are great. They're a proper rock band, each with a problem whether it be drugs or alcohol or both. I did find it hard to follow at times with it being short stories and it not seeming to be in a proper order and I found myself confused as to what was happening at times. Maybe that was the late night reading though!

I'd read another of Toby's books as I did enjoy this one. It wasn't a favourite but I'd probably pick it up again as a quick read.
