CHARACTERS è Welcome to Scranton L town life It offers scenes that make you laugh out loud situations that make you cringe and above all Scranton itself looms large as the kind of ugly lovely town that we all know too well wwwwelcometoscrantonco. The best part of this book were the characters They were real and engaging I appreciated aspects of the story but for the most part I felt like it was a little flat The ending seemed abrupt and the resolution seemed too easy especially since the challenge didn t even seem established yet However this was a enjoyable read

CHARACTERS è Welcome to Scranton It's a wild ride through Scranton in this darkly funny and touching story about guys in their twenties trying to figure out life in their hometown The boundaries of friendship are tested as one of them hits rock. Do you like dark humor I thought this was amazing Somehow even with loads of foul language disparaging remarks about women and you name it this book has it I think this book is great The foul language and racial slurs are all necessary to depict the characters in the bookThe two main characters that Welcome to Scranton revolves around are Henry and Ed It is all written in first person from the viewpoint of Henry He hates his name so you don t even know that right off Henry has a group of male friends that he has known from way back Jake Mike and Ed But the real main characters are Henry Ed and the town of Scranton If you look at the cover of the book you will see a collage of the important parts of the story but you can t figure it out just by looking at the coverThe story is told by Henry in first person First he tells about Ed waking up him up in the middle of the night Ed has an apartment in the same complex and he bangs on the door at three in the morning Ed asks him for some smokes and mentions that he took a whole bottle of pills Henry gives him the smokes Ed leaves and then he goes back to sleep Then he wakes up again He thinks about the bottle of pills that Ed took What should he do Take Ed to the hospital Then he hesitates Why that you will learnThere are two parts of the story a journey back into the past with meetings in bars with his friends a road trip to Atlantic City and we really get to know Henry Ed and Scranton and the rest of the group Then we are back to the present Henry has to make an important decisionFrom the first sentence of the book with Ed banging on Henry s door I did not want to put Welcome to Scranton down The whole book is a wild ride through the past and through Scranton I have seen some complaints in reviews that there is no plot But there is definitely conflict That conflict resides in Henry and he has to make a very important decision This book is so skillfully written that all you have to do is read and you will be carried along by the story at break neck speed There is a trailer for this book at I think that it would be better to see the trailer after you read the book unless of course you are already familiar with Scranton The music to the trailer is perfect it expresses the dark humor in this book to a T The title of this book is very important because Scranton is a main character in this book You get to know Scranton in this book the seamy side the funny side and uirky sideI recommend this book to all who love dark humor
