Query: not that great...

I must say that I wasn't intrigued by this story, but it came recommended by a friend. I didn't think I would even finish it, but kept reading in the hopes that there would be an interesting twist or good climax. There wasn't. The author seemed likable and was at times witty, his characters were real, hard-working people, and I related well to his wife. It just wasn't that great of a read.
