I didn’t love this one. I can’t decide if it was the incredibly self-loathing main character (which reminds me that I rarely read MMCs) or the plot never really going anywhere. I do know that if I wasn’t stuck on an airplane while reading it, I probably would’ve DNF’d. 

Andy just got dumped by the love of his life. As we go along for the ride through the stages of grief, we are eye witnesses to the hot mess of his life. 

What I liked: the emphasis on masculinity in today’s society, the redeeming ex-girlfriend’s POV, how realistic the break up woes were, Andy’s mom, and Andy’s personal trainer
What I didn’t like: how drawn out the story was, the whining and lack of main character development, and not being able to relate to Andy 

Alderton did a great job of portraying how much break ups suck. Perhaps I needed to be in a different mindset to enjoy it more.
