A review by underscorelsa
Albatross by Terry Fallis

funny lighthearted reflective medium-paced

4.5

Let's get this out of the way first, I loved this book. I thought it weird when I first read the description, a book about golf? But oh man it is definitely much more than that, and it strayed from what I thought was gonna be a typical "oh man, I'm so good at golf I'll just leave everything else behind (and regret it later)".  The whole doing what you really want vs what other people expect of you is just amazing. As well as the "celebrity" aspect of it all. ALSO THE ENDING AAAAHHHHH.

The only thing that bothered me a bit was the weird pacing in various parts. I felt I was reading the beginning way faster than what was happening in the "after-that-event" chunk.  

Also, reading this post-2020 is just so funny. Never in a million years could we have guessed what would happen, so I can't blame the author at all. But, oh man. 

Eyeing over other reviews, I can't wait to read more of his books, given that this is one of his "worse" ones. How???
