A review by davidscrimshaw
The Gum Thief by Douglas Coupland

4.0

This book has a novel inside a novel and then... there's a novel inside the novel that is inside the novel!

I don't really know if that's a good thing. I was not very interested in the third level down. I cared about the characters in the main novel. Maybe it was deliberate that I wouldn't care so much the further levels down.

The main novel characters know each other from the Staples they work at. That was definitely fun.

And I'm happy to report that this book was in my big pile of books to read and now I can put it in one of the nearby little free libraries.
