This book had an intriguing premise, but wasn't very good at keeping my interest. A few years out of college, Conor and his friends are given a opportunity to take their now-defunct band on one last tour. This could have been a great story about people finding their true selves or somesuch, but instead it's filled with a lot of juvenile behavior and cheap jokes. ( )This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I received this book from Library Thing to read and review. Just like the title, I was listless as I read this book. I did not really hold my interest very well, and I found myself, more often than not, hoping I was near the end. The story involves a now defunct band, who get one last chance to rave the country, playing music as they earlier did. The book is written well enough, just not very exciting. In addition, I wondered about some of the band members actions, which were pretty juvenile, to say the least. I guess the message was that it doesn’t always pay to go back and try to relive the past because, sooner or later, reality smacks you in the face, and you see things are really not very different. I am not sure which audience the author wrote this for. At times, I thought it might me a young adult audience, while at other times I thought it might be the older adult who has “been there, done that”. I do wish the book had held my interest more, however. Nevertheless, I am not giving up on the author and will try other books. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.I liked the storyline but it didn't hold my interest. I found myself skipping forward a little during some parts. That being said for a debut novel I think it shows the authors potential. I would definitely give the author another try. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. * NOTE: I received a copy of this book in exchange for a review. *The Listless sounds like a book that I would really love. It is about a touring indie band and what goes on with the members over the course of these experiences. The idea behind this story was awesome, but something about it was just too contrived for me personally. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I received this book from a LibraryThing Members Giveaway in exchange for a review.I chose to read this book because it dealt with a topic with which I was not very familiar - current-day musicians on tour. The story follows the Listless band on a summer tour of many eastern US cities. While there are moments of immaturity among the band members, they are surprisingly well-behaved when it comes to alcohol, drugs, fans, etc. Perhaps, they are too good to ring true. The book was well-written, but I had difficulty trying to find a theme for most of it. I wish some of the humanity in the conclusion had appeared throughout the story. I have to say that the ending was a surprise! ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
