I just couldn't get into this book at all. A few friends have been telling me for a year how much I'd like this Swedish author's novels. They were dead wrong...try as I might, and believe me I tried several times, it just wasn't for me.

Some of the stories are worthy of 5 stars; a couple, maybe 2 or 3. Overall, it's a great collection. Very well-written.
a wonderful book about friendship, writing, addiction... a short read but worth it.

This is a tautly written, anxious, suspenseful story about the feeling of powerlessness and what we do with our guilt. While the momentary reveal of a concealed gun is scary, the real weapon in this novel is truth. There's rarely anything as deeply frightening as the truth, which is why the story's protagonist, Glen, struggles so much with it throughout the book. I don't like driving very much, and so I could relate with Glen and his introduction: he spends too much time driving, and the carelessness of other drivers wears him down. He and his wife, Liz, had been in a car accident before, when she was seven months pregnant with their daughter Sara, and now that his daughter is in elementary school, he has little tolerance for the thoughtless strangers who put her life in danger. One very bad driving day--a cop breaks traffic laws and then is dismissive of Glen for following them, Glen and his daughter are threatened by a bystander, and a reckless driver careens in the streets around Glen's own neighborhood--turns into a particularly tragic one when Glen makes the split-second decision to teach that last driver a lesson. An accident results, and Glen and Sara are the only witnesses. In the course of choosing what to tell the police and doing his best to protect his daughter, Glen's own life and relationships begin skidding off course. Will Allison's prose is very taut and straight-forward, giving Glen's first-person narrative a very realistic feel. Glen was not always easy to relate to (the anger issues and his stalking of the man who threatened him with a gun, in particular, felt pretty foreign to me at times), but as he explained his choices and his emotions and his own realizations, I was for the most part able to follow him emotionally. I read this book in nearly one sitting, wanting to know what happens and how Glen could repair his relationships if he had such a difficult time wrestling with truth and guilt. Note: I received a review copy from the publisher through the First Reads program here at Goodreads.

Somewhat average story rescued by beautiful artwork.
The Jack books are certainly worth checking out but for me the original Fables series is better.

The focus here is on the specific brands we choose when we buy things, rather than on just how much stuff we're buying in general. Although there is some of the latter too, especially in the context of creating new markets. Some nicely-balanced examples of how our choices are more complex and less shallow than popularly assumed and how brand communities are real communities. The line between using stuff to reflect your self vs using it to build a self. His arguments for the virtues and artistic value of the indie producers, however, were less convincing. And a compare/contrast of the t-shirt boys vs the crafty girls (or at least his portrayals of them) could be an interesting article. I'm reading a lot more about consumerism than I'd realized -- I'd already read many of the books/articles cited in here.
