When you start the novel, A.J. is not likable at all, yes he's grieving but he is also really off putting and pretentious. Once Maya comes into the story i could not put it down  

When we find out her father it is very satisfying.

A solid quick read, took me 3 days. The book is just like the title suggests, it’s the story of a man named A.J. Fikry’s life. I gave it 2.5 because it’s wasn’t bad, but not really something I would recommend to a friend.

Such a great read! Really loved Maya as a character. And A.J. despite being cold/abrasive, he really is lovable. I was NOT expecting the twist before part 2. No spice, so if you want to read a well rounded literary fiction, I would highly suggest this book. Looking forward to watching the film adaptation to see how it holds up to the book.
