Bad Haircut

This is another set of stories by Tom Perrotta. I previously enjoyed his Nine Inches book. These stories almost seem autobiographical. The settings is the 1970s, where Buddy, our main character, is mostly going to high school.

Perrotta has the ability to quick bring you into the scene and feel like you are part of the action. There is nothing astounding about the main character. The beauty lies in the details that Perrotta decides to include in his stories.

You know Perrotta is the master when he can end the book with a funeral that keeps you on the edge of your seat. However, once again, there is no real unusual piece of the story. Just masterful storytelling here.

I know I said this before. But I got to get myself more books by this author.
