Big Trouble

Written by Oliver Willis
Published October 15, 2002

Always been a big Dave Barry fan, and his tone translates well to fiction. Being an ex-Floridian myself, Dave captures the mood and atmosphere of South Florida to a tee. Everything he says is the awful truth, and it makes the book more enjoyable with that authenticity.

My only gripe would be the "madcap" nature of the final few chapters, as it is rather reminiscent of Carl Hiassen's work. Maybe Florida brings that out it in people.

But, I couldn't put it down - read it in one night, highly recommended.

Oliver Willis has fooled many into believing that he's a writer at OliverWillis.com. I am not making this up.
