"White Monkey" by Carlos Hughes

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, In : Book Reviews 


I have to admit, this book was laugh-out-loud funny at times; I found myself cracking up in a way I haven’t done for years when reading.  Well done, Carlos; comedy gold.  Bit crude and crass, at times, in a way where you know instantly it can only have been written by an English author; the language is very strong and its coarseness sometimes invokes an uncomfortable wince.  I don’t have a problem with that, as such – I’m no prude – but it has to be funny.  Though, in truth, Carlos ...

"The Road to Courage" by Roy Taylor

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Saturday, July 6, 2024, In : Book Reviews 


There’s something a little warm and wholesome about this slice-of-life memoir; it is full of love, faith and a family-friendly read.  Describing a year or so in the life of a young boy whose family moved to Alaska to build a log chapel, where his father would become a pastor, it is your usual fish-out-of-water story, the theme of so many memoirs by U.S. authors – a country so vast that moving home often means a massive culture shock.  And this is the same, as the Taylor family learns to f...

"The End of the Playboy" by Harlin Hailey

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, May 21, 2024, In : Book Reviews 



Very sharply scripted, biting satire, and more of the same from the sardonically witty Harlin, this time set against the increasingly fashionable backdrop of the battle of the generations: Millennials vs. GenX (or whatever monicker the superior former have deemed dominion to label the latter with).  It was by pure coincidence that I read this book, about a former creative, days from his 50th birthday, just a few days before my own 50th birthday, and I therefore felt I had more of a stake in i...

"Starting Over" by L.F. Roth

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, April 9, 2024, In : Book Reviews 



Very amiably written, the old-style charm of this book brings to mind some of the bawdy public-school classics of the 40s and 50s; you expect the characters to all be speaking eloquent queen’s English or caricature Cockney.  Roth writes exceptionally well, and the narrative is not one which is particularly profound in any way.  This is rather more a romanticized, slice-of-life, mildly amusing sitcom, which might have you hearkening back to “a better time”.  It is a frivolous look at wha...

"The Further Travels and Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen" by Ross Stein

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Wednesday, February 21, 2024, In : Book Reviews 


Bizarrely offbeat, this book is part fantasy, part satire and generally overall, I think, mostly literary fiction.  Those familiar with the original Baron Munchausen tales – and I refer now to the book, not the tall stories told about the real man himself – will recognize this as much of the same, with the same strangely vivid, visual setpieces and abstract palette, though I have to say I’m not entirely sure why the author chose to pigeonhole himself with a direct sequel to a literary c...

"Faith" by Nick Nielsen

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Thursday, February 15, 2024, In : Book Reviews 


I won’t lie, it was a slightly tough read, this fantasy thriller from Nick Nielsen.  Not because he isn’t a good writer, by any means; quite the contrary, in fact, he is an exceptionally good writer – in fact, I think this might actually be the issue for me; he is too good.  This is a great story, with some fantastic writing, tremendously well edited, but, if I’m being as obtuse and simple about it as I can, the book simply felt too long.  There is an exceptional number of words – s...

"Water Music" by Marcia Peck

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Thursday, November 16, 2023, In : Book Reviews 





It isn’t immediately clear just how much of this book is autobiographical, or even semi-biographical, if any at all, but I would suspect there is a fair amount of personal truth and life story of the author, or perhaps one of her immediate ancestors, in this heartfelt and emotionally charged tale.  I wouldn’t really call it a coming-of-age story, as the first-person narrator is a little young, at twelve, to be considered that, but it does bear all the hallmarks of these slice-of-life chil...

"Women: An Operator Guide For Young Men" by Will Goodrich

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Thursday, January 5, 2023, In : Book Reviews 


There are two sides to this side-splitting book, one laugh-out-loud comedy and the other a little more serious in tone, enough to make you wonder if you really should be laughing along with Will Goodrich – not for any politically correct reason, but because you feel this is a man with a very sour history of women.  Obviously I don’t know anything about Will’s three marriages, nor will I blindly take his side, but as a fellow man of the world, I can utterly laugh along with this book.  I...

"Alone Against the Sea" by Lance V. Packer

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, September 25, 2022, In : Book Reviews 


Before I begin, I should disclose that I assisted Lance in the production of this book.  However, rest assured that this has no bearing whatsoever on my review.  I have been fortunate enough now to read a couple from this author, and I can say with all sincerity that he is a cut above the rest.  His quality is from the top drawer, and whilst his books might not be the most eventful or action packed, they are as poignant, as profound and as thought-provoking as you are ever likely to read.  Al...

"The Manifesting Book" by Kathleen Montgomery

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Friday, September 2, 2022, In : Book Reviews 

If you were to read this book from cover to cover, as I did, it would likely take you less than an hour in one sitting.  But there would be little point in doing so.  This is, in fact, a very handy little coffee table read, for you to pick up and practice as and when the mood takes you.  The whole premise is that you can literally physically manifest events, outcomes and even objects, just by training yourself to change your outlook and attitude.  Whilst the latter of those three seems somewh...

"Salt and Light: The Complete Jesus" by Jonathan Geoffrey Dean

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Wednesday, August 31, 2022, In : Book Reviews 

As an unwavering atheist, who believes wholeheartedly in the existence of Jesus, I was very much looking forward to reading this book, and its evaluation of the authenticity of his divinity, from the point of view of an author immeasurably more knowledgeable on the subject than I.  Whilst Jonathan Dean certainly doesn’t disappoint – he is an extremely high quality author, who has undeniably studied, researched and analysed his subject comprehensively – I will admit that it was a slightl...

"Immunity for Murder" by David M. Beers

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, June 26, 2022, In : Book Reviews 


A very tough read – for lots of reasons – but a very good one.  I have to give you the forewarning I wasn’t: this is an incredibly harrowing book, with graphic, detailed and repeated accounts of the internal and external injuries of a murdered two-year-old.  Written by an experienced crime scene investigator of many years, and very clearly outlining a case which elicited very intense emotions in him, Immunity for Murder describes the day-by-day, true-life investigation into the particul...

"Bully Boy" by Tom Wade

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, June 14, 2022, In : Book Reviews 


So, this book is technically flawed, ultimately unsatisfying and doesn’t really go in any direction near where you are hoping it will go – and you know what?  I loved every minute of it!  Tom’s book is great.  With its tangible air of menace permeating throughout, simmering below the surface from very early on, it is safe to say that you spend much of it in nailbiting suspense, just wondering where bullied Henry is taking all of this.  And the author knows this.  Furthermore, he fosters...

"The Savoy and Other Stories" by Stephen Murphy

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Monday, April 25, 2022,

I love short stories, especially when they’re well written, and this intriguing anthology is just that.  From what is clearly an interesting and creative mind, Stephen Murphy delivers a dozen and a half or so of what can only be really described as vignettes, and for the most part slice of life, even if some of those fictional lives are a good deal more interesting than others.  The tales are not action packed or exciting, but rather more anecdotal or perhaps suggestive.  They are more abou...

"Faces We Love: Shanghai" by Derek Muhs and Marisa Tarin

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Monday, March 21, 2022, In : Book Reviews 

Not a work of literature in any real sense, but it is still difficult to imagine that this beautiful and sometimes stunning collection won’t appeal to most people on some level.  The elegant foreword and introduction aside, this book is in fact almost entirely a showcase of photography curated by a talented and shrewd-eyed life observers.  The 100 or so photographs range from the stylish to the sombre, the exciting to the calm, and the most simple of setpiece to the cleverest of visual effe...

"Certified" by Roger Wilson-Crane

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, October 26, 2021, In : Book Reviews 

This is not so much a book of three short stories, as some of the reviews might suggest, but rather three parts of the same story of one man’s life, each taking one of the themes of its three major events: birth, marriage and death.  It does get you wondering while reading just how much is fictional and how much biographical or autobiographical.  You hope it is not too much of the latter, to be honest, because in all honesty, generally the unnamed protagonist does not come across a particul...

"Fill the Gaps" by Andrew Johnston

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, August 24, 2021, In : Book Reviews 

Bittersweet and poignant, this bleak tragi-comic drama is all the better for its ambiguity.  It is an intelligent book which credits its audience with comparable intelligence, and allows them to fill the detail gaps (which may be the reason for the title); although Isaac is a pretty unpleasant character, he is also a very complex and somewhat sad one – worse still, we can all relate to him in some way.

Johnston is a wonderful writer, deep and suggestive, and he has done a tremendous job of...

"Tales From an Odd Mind" by Nom D. Plume

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Thursday, August 12, 2021, In : Book Reviews 

I wouldn’t necessarily call Nom D. Plume’s mind an odd one, so much as a very high functioning, obscure one, and good luck trying to get on the author’s tangent – though if you do, you’ll be rewarded, for sure.  I like short stories and poetry, and I really like this collection, too.  The tales, I would say, are more like little vignettes or snippets of narrative, as bizarrely offbeat as they are exceptionally intelligent and well written, and as utterly random as they are astutely ...

"Roller Rink Starlight" by William Hart

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Saturday, June 12, 2021, In : Book Reviews 


William Hart is an excellent writer, accomplished and professional; in a way, that makes this otherwise standard coming-of-age memoir a slight cut above.  In point of fact, I call it “coming of age”, but truthfully the characters are much younger than this – for this reason the content of this book didn’t really sit right with me at times, and readers are warned in this respect.  It is pretty vivid in its the sexual content, and I found this a little uncomfortable, because in the main...

"User Story Confusion" by Chris Lewis

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, April 27, 2021, In : Book Reviews 




To clarify, for those not familiar with Chris Lewis’s Carnsa family series of books, a “user story” in this context refers to an Agile application of workflow development, for practice in business and the workplace.  A “story” is a statement with an objective; a single sentence identifying a problem, action and goal, with the overall intention of creating a Kanban-style workflow from it.

Incredibly for a book of less than 10,000 words, I can’t really work out if User Story Confus...

"Caught Between Worlds" by Lance Packer

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Thursday, March 11, 2021, In : Book Reviews 

Hugely accomplished work, by an author I’m coming to know as eloquent, intellectual and highly knowledgeable.  Caught Between Worlds is an insightful and informative coming-of-age drama, which is bittersweet, understated and melancholy, to the point of feeling a touch bleak at times.  Yet even though there is a feeling of mental (and perhaps even tangibly physical) coldness when reading it, ultimately there is also warmth – the kind which only comes from thoughts of “home”.

A real cu...

"The Ordinary Leader" by Geoff Lew

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, January 10, 2021, In : Book Reviews 



An imaginative and highly creative take on motivation and life coaching by a non-fiction author who is entertaining and engaging.  Lew infuses large swathes of personality and humour into his writing, and is very easy to relate to.  He clearly has huge interest and knowledge of his field of expertise: the military history of ancient China.  Using popular fables and anecdotes from this long, eventful period, he goes on to apply the lessons of the time to how we approach life generally in the m...

" All the Bay's Clams and All the Bay's Men" by John Bauer

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, September 13, 2020, In : Book Reviews 


I’m becoming a big fan of John Bauer’s writing, and this acerbic coming-of-age drama is another good one from him.  He is a sharp author, with a great professional style and a wry sense of humour.  The interaction between the characters is entertaining and nostalgia-inducing; you remember talking that way with your buddies at their age (boys, that is; girls I can’t really speak for).  More than that, though, Bauer has a knack of creating lead characters with multiple layers of humanity,...

"Hinterland" by Lorna Brown

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, August 9, 2020, In : Book Reviews 



Slow burning and hugely atmospheric, Lorna’s work always simmers below the surface, with an intensity which grows and engulfs the reader; this thought-provoking composition is no different.  With a palpable feeling of menace growing gradually throughout, there is also an element of mysterious ambiguity, in this tale of a man with a history of violence struggling to raise his wayward daughter, whilst protecting her from the dark truth about her mentally ill mother.  Be warned, it is as bleak...

"The Perfection of Fish" by J.S. Morrison

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Wednesday, June 17, 2020, In : Book Reviews 


I must confess to struggling with this book somewhat.  With an ensemble cast of characters, and different strands of a connected storyline, I admit that I spent much of the read lost and trying to play catch-up.  I saw it through, of course, because I was keen to see where this otherwise intriguing, dark, absurd and occasionally disturbing tale was leading.  It is, in fact, a very clever, if simple overall story, in which two misogynistic zealots set out to genetically create a subservient gl...

"The Surgeon's Obol" by Arthur Williams

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, June 14, 2020, In : Book Reviews 


This wryly comic and academically enlightening look at the professional day-to-day in the working life of a hospital surgery intern, based on real-life stories and experiences, is a real treat, if a little hard to stomach at times – as is the nature of this type of book: i.e. medical profession fly-on-the-wall.  There are a lot of this extremely popular and growing genre coming into print these days, and although I have to say they really don’t appeal to me personally (as someone married ...

"Were We Awake" by L.M. Brown

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Thursday, October 31, 2019, In : Book Reviews 


A wonderful collection of understated, yet profoundly compelling slice-of-life stories, by an author I am very fond of.  Lorna’s writing is lovely to read, creatively crafted in alluring prose.  Be warned though, it can be a little bleak – reminiscent of a grey, rainy day, and there is little respite from a permeating feeling of sadness and melancholy.  But, this is not necessarily a bad thing; it is ultimately warm comfort – reading her work brings to mind a feeling of home; hot tomato...

"East of Lincoln" by Harlin Hailey

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Saturday, September 21, 2019, In : Book Reviews 

This bleakly unsettling, yet triumphantly entertaining L.A.-dream-turned-sour tale, laced with sharp, very black – and sometimes side-splitting – comedy, is a real welcome interjection to the noir genre.  Addressing a subject which is vastly overlooked in our society: the scrapheap of middle-age – an age which takes everything from you, one piece at a time, it is very coarse and sour, and very, very good.

Set in the early-current decade – the post-recession Obama years – East of Li...

"THE TRANSLUCENT BOY AND THE CAT WHO RAN OUT OF TIME" by Tom Hoffman

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Wednesday, June 26, 2019, In : Book Reviews 

I was sent this book as a free review copy, and as I read – because I tend not to read blurb before my review reads – it became immediately clear that this was the second in a series.  Because I had also not read the first instalment, this fact did give me a few problems, in terms of context, setting and character backstory; I had to piece much of this together myself.  There were even aspects – such as the era in which it is set – which I didn’t realize until right near the end; fo...

"LOOPER" BY MICHAEL CONLON

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Monday, June 10, 2019, In : Book Reviews 



“Looper” is not quite what I was expecting, but rather a pretty laid-back, inoffensive affair, telling the tale of a teenager who spend his 1980 summer break caddying on a pro golf course.  Although the tagline suggests this is a “coming of age” tale, I think perhaps the main character Ford is a couple of years too young to be described as that.  There are none of the usual puerile high-jinks which often accompany such a genre, and to be honest that is refreshing; Ford and his friends...

"TREADING THE UNEVEN ROAD" by Lorna Brown

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Tuesday, March 12, 2019, In : Book Reviews 


Lorna is a lovely author, with a calm, easy tone, which makes you feel relaxed and deeply involved at the same time.  Her prose is delightful and you can almost hear the soft lull of her voice in it.  Her short tales, about little more than slices in the lives of ordinary, working class folk in a variety of Irish locales, are bleak, sombre and thick with melancholy, yet warm and comforting simultaneously.  Told from the different viewpoints of a various range of characters, there is yet somet...

"FATHER DIVINE'S BIKES" BY STEVE BASSETT

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, August 19, 2018, In : Book Reviews 



“Father Divine’s Bikes” is a fantastically written and utterly enthralling book by a very talented author.  It is at its best when a slice-of-life cultural expose, and for the most part this is what it is.  Set in wartime 1940s New Jersey, it portrays a melting pot of immigrant culture, with all the racial segregation, paranoia and employment resentment which comes with that.  The racial language is raw and offensive – there is certainly no whitewashed rewriting of history here, and t...

"HAPPINESS IS JUST A PILL AWAY" by David Grad

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Wednesday, December 20, 2017, In : Book Reviews 




This hugely impressive book is a very cynical, bittersweet and, at times, funny attack on the drudgery of the 9-5 day-to-day, compounding the constant disappointment of underachievement, in a society based on fallacy, superficiality and promise. A book which is easy to relate to in its hopelessness, and the motivation (or lack thereof) of its unnamed protagonist (/antagonist?).

There are laughs – including some real belly ones - but “Happiness Is Just A Pill Away” is not comedy,...

"NOT EXACTLY SHAKESPEARE: THE SHORTEST BOOK YOU'LL EVER BE FORCED TO PRETEND TO HAVE READ" By Martin Freznell

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Monday, September 18, 2017, In : Book Reviews 


I grabbed this one from my TBR list because it was short, and took my curiosity.  I wasn’t doing a cop-out – looking for an easy ride to shrink my review pile (honest) – it was more that the mysterious blurb sold me on this book.  What was it about?  Was it a short story, a funny monologue… a witty self-help guide?  I had literally no idea; all I knew was that it looked like a lot of fun, and something I could read with a cuppa.

What it actually was is the second of those three, mi...

"FIFTY EGG TIMER SHORT STORIES" By Richard Bunning

Posted by Matt McAvoy on Sunday, March 5, 2017, In : Book Reviews 




The concept of this collection is of 3-minute read flash fiction - the time it takes to boil an egg, or, more specifically, for an egg timer to run out.

These may be 3-minute reads (one or two maybe a little longer), but it is clear from very early on that their composition was far from brief – the author has put a huge amount of work into each one of these stories, and moulded them in a very unique style.  Although only an average of 750 words, each displays a particularly impressive know...
