Book Review: Shovel Ready by Adam Sternbergh

Friday, October 31, 2014


Shovel Ready was a surprisingly great book. I wasn't sure how I was going to like it when I first started it. Sternbergh's writing style is very unique and takes some getting used to. He doesn't use quotations so it was a little confusing at times to figure out who was talking. 

Overall, I really enjoyed it! This is book is very dark and violent, and the main character is an anti-hero, however, everything fit together perfectly! The story was gripping and kept me turning the page until the end. I will definely be picking up the sequel next year. I recommend this to people who like futuristic, dark, hard-boiled stories. If you like Watchmen, Inception, or Noir Films, or if you are looking for something way out of your comfort zone, this is for you!
