A review by michaelpdonley
High Fidelity by Nick Hornby

5.0

Such a well-drawn character Rob is. At 36, he's still working at the record store, still compiling top 5 lists, still infuriatingly childish and self-absorbed. We believe that the author loves this guy, even as he points out his flaws. We know why Laura, the ever patient, ever honest partner, tolerates him and tries to make him better. She, like the author, believes in his passion, as weird and eccentric as it is.
