I was not expecting to like Sorrows of an American. It is a novel and I tend not to like fiction, and the back cover did not look particularly interesting, so I was worried about reading it. But when I started, I couldn't put it down. I found myself forgetting to get bored between paragraphs. It is a really great story, and although I'm only half way through, I am really enjoying it. I think it helps that the main character has psychiatrist tendencies, so characters are explained deeper than they might normally be. It helps me pick up on the intricacies of each character and formulate a greater understanding of them. I am really enjoying the book right now.
