Who Is Rich? by Matthew Klam

3.0

This book started great. Then fizzled. I was expecting more humor and less depression and need. Maybe it hit too close to home for me. I can really see myself as Robin, I am pretty sure at one time I was almost her. I found myself growing uncomfortable in a way that does not lead to self discovery, but instead, guilt and sadness. I don't need to feel that now so I skimmed the last 100 pages. I'm sure as a result, I missed something, but I needed to finish it. It wasn't bad enough to quit, but it was great enough to make me want to read every word. I guess I just wanted it to be better. Maybe I wanted myself to be better too. Or maybe I am better and don't need to be drug back into a not so great time in my life. People in a different place in their lives may really connect with this book and find the humor that I didn't see. I think it could be a good book with an audience better than me.
