I appreciate the candid review. As I don't like books filled with graphic language and sexual content; I will probably not like the novel myself. I believe your review is very well written and shows both the good and not so desireable aspects of the book. It does make one curious about the character enough to take a quick flip through of a few pages just to see if it still may be interesting enough to bypass the crudeness. Thank you for reviewing this book.

This story sounds like nothing else that I have read and I like that it had an edge to it. I like the character of Pomeroy because of his personality and his self confidence. I can easily imagine his musical abilities and the internal dialogue that is constantly present throughout the story.

Fantastic review. I feel like grabbing the book right away and goldmine the humorous aspect of the story. Pomeroy is a character to watch.

Thanks for the good review. I don't really see the book fascinating anyway, but I appreciate the fact that they key personality in the book (Pomeroy) was able to pick up the ball and create his own niche after returning from jail.

Thanks for the review. I think I will pass on this one; it sounds as though the crude language is a major part of the book.

I'm excited to read this story and the comedic relief it brings. This seems like a real-life character who can help you realize that someone who has fallen on hard times might be rough around the edges but isn't a bad person overall.

It's very nice that the author warns the potential readers about the language and sexism in the book. I think I would enjoy this book in spite of that, the plot sounds interesting.
