My Thoughts
Ben Adams for me is an instant buy author from now on. I ordered Relativity few days back , this was another one of those books where I ordered it without reading the blurb, so when it arrived I was a bit unsure about the whole then and now way it was written. However, Ben Adams did it SO well!
There are a lot of adventures and mishaps on the way as well as arguments. The plot was great fun and I enjoyed the wackiness of some of what happened and the revelations that came out. The book was pure joy and I completely became hooked on the best road trip ever, one I would have loved and hated to be a part of. It was comical and heart-warming at the same time.
Yes, there were amusing moments in ‘Relativity’ I was particularly engaged by the central relationship or by the supporting characters. I also felt that the more serious themes in the novel were amazing.
Overall this was a dramatic, hilarious and very sweet read. I absolutely recommend.
