Less

4.5/5 stars

A failed novelist is turning 50 and struggling with the idea of getting old. To make matters worse, his boyfriend of the last 9 years if getting married to someone else. To run away from life, he takes a trip around the world. 

This satire was a great romantic comedy. I loved the protagonist, Arthur Less, and found him comical and charming. There were moments that were slower paced (at least compared to the thrillers I typically read), yet it was still a short, feel-good read that was perfect for a relaxing Sunday. I loved how the author weaved in anecdotes from the past and gave us insights into how our narrator viewed Less. The ending was perfect and made me love the book even more.
