This is Where I Leave You
by Jonathan Tropper
dark
emotional
funny
tense
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Complicated
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
There are some funny moments, some good writing, and some life insights in this book, but they're buried in a chaotic cluster of toxic masculinity and characters blaming all their problems on other people. It's hard to enjoy a story when there are no lovable characters to cheer for.
