Supermarket
by Bobby Hall
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
As much as I wanted to like this debut novel by Logic, it falls short in pretty much every single way for me.
Supermarket feels like an autobiography of Bobby Hall. Flynn's mannerisms, his way of speaking, his love for English and no other subjects... Combine this with the blatantly obvious and unnecessary breaking of the fourth wall at every opportunity, and as a reader you're left wondering if you are reading a story about Flynn, the main character, or Logic, the author.
Despite all this, it was still a fun read somehow. It's just not a very good book. Logic is not an author and it shows.
