From the very beginning, Carl felt like someone I would like to get to know. Down to earth, approachable and realistic in every aspect of his life, Carl seems the antithesis of an award-winning musician. I loved that he kept a side gig as an exterminator and held on to his old tour van, Carl shows a sentimentality, vulnerability and unique sense of humor that easily carried me through the pages. It seemed that no matter what Carl did, that life quickly got in the way; he meets a nice woman and his boss is her crazy ex-boyfriend, releasing a CD and he receives a prank CD back, and a multi-layered request from an ex turns into more than he could imagine. The supporting cast of characters made Carl's life all the more interesting. I loved Rhonda, the independent, takes no crap car mechanic and Sheila who was always hiding a separate agenda. Most of all, I truly cared about Carl's story and how he ended up. Overall, a unique story of a musician figuring out life like the rest of us.
