Bridge-centric! Great for bridge beginners and a nice YA story. Other than the bridge, it's pretty basic, so I would not recommend it unless you are a player or want to learn.
I guess it isn't possible to make bridge exciting, although Mr. Sachar really gave it the ol' college try. The non-bridge playing parts were enough to keep me interested though, with some really charmingly real characters.Although I have to wonder: if the narrator hadn't repeatedly told me how boring it was, would I have found it as boring?
