Roysh, I've loike finished this book lately. It's called, like, "The miseducation years" of Ross O'Carroll-Kelly. Ross O'Carroll-Kelly is a fictional (if only!) character that started off appearing in the Sunday Tribune (I think - corrections welcome, natually) . It's the life of a stereotypical "D4- head" who plays for the senior cup team of a private rugby school, and his life scoring tries, birds, and money from his parents for the sauce.Mr. O'Carroll Kelly is actually quite an obnoxious teenager, and the character really makes you very irritated some times, with a total lack of respect for anybody other than himself. Very successfully written in that regard is the conclusion I suppose.
To be honest though, I'm not sure I could read another of these books, roysh, because the personality of the O'Carroll-Kelly is very ennervating. Whilst I've read and enjoyed the piece in the paper, I think it may work better there as a weekly diary. Small doses are much more entertaining, but chapter after chapter of the young lad treating his parents like an ATM gets a little overpowering.
Light reading, reasonably entertaining, but not very engaging.
