Review by Heather Moore
At my hair appointment the other day, I was browsing through the free downloads on my Kindle app. I'd downloaded a sample chapter from BIG IN JAPAN. Since I was recently at a writers conference where I listened someone from the publisher speak (and was impressed), there were 2 things in favor of opening the book over all of the others (free sample, impressed with publisher).
So I started reading. Of course it cut off way too soon, and I did something I haven't done in awhile. I purchased the full book off of reading a sample. By the end of the day, I was half way through the story, caught up in the 300 pound main character, Buck, who joins his parents on a business trip to Japan.
Buck is the perfect awkward unsung hero, but his quirks are endearing, and his character very relatable.
Great humor throughout as well, some serious thought-provoking events, as well as a sweet romance. Really, everything rolled into one.
