November 24th - Skip the first 30 pages and come in at the start of chapter 2 or risk wondering why in god's name you had ever raved about Mil Millington. It was almost as if he had taken a leaf out of Jeffery Kellermans approach to writing and was working on being paid by the word. There were freaking hundreds of them and none of them was witty or entertaining. Started once and gave up in despair. Then because I just couldn't accept that I wasn't going to love a Mil Millington book I opened it randomly and had another go. Pretty light on lol moments to be fair and the plot requires the usual suspension of belief. Bloke in pub with mates and girlfriend, gets rat arsed, wakes up in bed with mystery woman. He thinks its the next day turns out it's 20 years later, mystery woman is his long suffering wife and he is missing 20 years. Gives rise to some chuckle inducing moments but not a patch on the bloody brilliant Love and other near death experiences reviewed with much hyperbole below!
