A Life to Waste

The first 30% of this book was just exposition and I don't think it was necessary at all. I also found that the story suffered from the need to demonize Dave for being traumatized and ill equipped to handle it.
When we got to the point where Dave encountered the villain and we finally stopped hearing how much Dave sucks the story got pretty good even though Dave's actions were completely out of character. The conclusion was just ok (I'm not a fan of the more trauma will fix unresolved issues trope).
