The Philosophical Practitioner

The Philosophical Practitioner by Larry Abrams

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I received a copy of this book from netgally to review. Lucky for me, I was drawn to the cover and title. I didn't even read the synopsis.



Such a quick read! It was cute, funny, quick, deep, and engaging. With the first sentence, I got the image of an old detective movie stuck in my head. It carried me throughout the book especially since his "girl" is a famous actress. I enjoyed taking time to think on some of the philosophical questions brought up in the book.



The only disappointment I had with this book is the length. The characters could have definitely been opened up and examined more. The back story with the "gun lady" could have taken a little more development. Part of me is left wanting a little more. But since most of the characters were trying to find the same thing, that may be what the author intended.
