A well read story juxtaposing two very different lifestyles in urban London. Intriguing characters are not always full credible, but the reader is drawn in anyway.

This is an awesome book by an outstanding writer. The characters are unique and tell their stories with specific voice and clarity. It is not a thriller, but I was riveted to the book until the very last word.

A delightful coming-of-age story - a boy who overcomes the challenges of a dysfunctinal family and the foster care system - a lot of heart.

An intriguing book. The narrator is a young college student who keeps digging himself into a deeper hole, as he gains a following as a radio announcer by revealing the mysterious secret of his girl friend. While he learns that he has a knack for telling a story, he also learns how difficult it is to fight his natural desire to protect his new found popularity, at the cost of his girl friend's privacy.
