Mash

Short Review: I picked this up on an audiobook sale. It was only $3 so I figured it was worth it. I am a big fan of the show and movie MASH. And this is the book that inspired both. What I like about it was that it was clear that the characters from the movie and TV show were well characterized here and because of that they characters carried well to the other format.

What I didn't like about it was that it was more of a series of short stories than a novel. There was very little holding it all together. And virtually all of these short stories were used in either the TV show or the movie. And while I was interested for the sake of my love of the show, it really wasn't great writing, good but not great. So if you are a fan of the TV/Movie you might be interested because of the history. But otherwise I would skip it.
