The Confessions of Max Tivoli by Andrew Sean Greer

5.0

I read this the first time about eight years ago and decided to pick it up again a few months ago. I was worried that my opinion of the book would be different now that I'm older and (slightly) more mature, but I still absolutely love this book - everything about it. It's similar to "The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons" in the way that the main character, Max Tivoli, ages backwards, but with major differences in story line and plot. Andrew Sean Greer is a fantastic writer - he describes love, life, relationships and emotions so visually and completely that his books really stick in your head.
