I was not impressed with this book at all. It got my interest because of all the travel involved. In reality the book does not paint an interesting picture of all the places, instead it focuses on the constant dissatisfaction and whining reminiscences of a middle-aged loser. It feels like despite having traveled almost around the world he has learned nothing, gained no perspective and grown in no way as a person. The ending was disappointing and unbelievably cheesy.

I liked the voice of the main character as he was snarky and had dark humour, but about halfway in and nothing has happened and the negativity of the character started to wear me down. The writing style is also difficult to get into - it feels like an unedited manuscript, with long run-on sentences and no paragraph breaks. I should have known because the summary is similarly poorly structured.
