A Little Disappointing

(3 Sterne)
I feel the title of this book was somewhat a misnomer because although it included a number of stories, there were more of what I would call "observational anecdotes". Patterson's writing is witty, clever and iconically Australian, but despite this I was bored by these anecdotes. And I found the section on dog fighting unpleasant. I'll probably listen to more of his stories as I come across them, but I can't say I'll ever be a fan.
