If you're feeling totally confused and frustrated about being good, don't read Nick Hornby's How To Be Good.

It's not that it's not well written-- it is. It's just that it's a well written book about feeling confused and frustrated about being good, and I'm getting enough of it in real life without help.

I do strongly recommend Hornby's About A Boy, however. It's fun, enjoyable, and ultimately uplifting. Much less frustrating than the other.
