Awful, Ohio on Dec. 28, 2011

Awful, Ohio is a story of what happens when one man’s determination and desire to achieve happiness coincide with passion. The characters in the book are well developed and follow a story line that is intriguing and mysterious. Throughout the story the reader is perpetually wondering how Troy Slushy is going to achieve his seemingly unrealistic goal of blowing up the sun and living happily ever after in the dark with his lovely wife, Lacy. With the addition of intricate secondary characters and villains the reader finds themselves cheering for Troy Slushy to prevail. Not only is the surface story one of intrigue but so is the underlying message of the state of the world that we live in today, fueled by money, greed and materialism. Not since Fight Club, have I read a piece of work that so cleverly attempts to show the audience what a backwards society we live in.
