4.0

Written in the true Jonas Jonasson style, this book takes you on a journey with a mix of quirky characters. It's a fun-filled, laid-back, easy read, even though towards the middle, my care factor towards the characters skewed downward. Get ready for this road trip that will take you to multiple European countries in your mind's eye, and as always, the stakes become higher and higher as the mileage ticks onward. A simple yet effective message is etched towards the end of embracing the little moments and living life to the fullest.
