Book Review – U Got to Have U Some Fun, by Andrew Harkless (1 Coffee Bean)

This book is another “ocean voyage road trip.” Having taken a cruise, I can say that the experiences John has on his first cruise are very true-to-life.

But the niceness of this book ends there. I can’t remember the last time I read a book so boring. Often, it is also preachy. If you love boring, this could be the book for you. If not, my recommendation is to shy away.

If you’re still interested, this is the encapsulation (no spoilers): John is a divorced man whose only child was in the military and was killed overseas. John has always lived in his small town in Kansas, married his childhood sweetheart, stayed at his first job, and was living contentedly. His son encouraged him to take a cruise, and an anonymous donor sent him a ticket. John cruises, meeting lots of people and experiencing a great many new things.

This is this author’s “maiden” novel, and I wish him well, despite a lack of connection with me.
