Will Scott wakes up hung over. He doesn't know what day it is. He doesn't have pants.Will's day is like a car crash. You can't look away.From the first hysterically surreal encounter with a f*****g wolf in the hallway (which, as he notes, is far different and not to be confused with "just a wolf in the hall, like it's no big deal at all") to totaling his neighbor's orange Lamborghini, you can't stop...because Will can't stop.Will is a compelling character, far from perfect and more than a little coarse, but you just have to root for him. He's real. He's a mess. He's just been in a bar fight, and our first glimpse of him is watching him spit his teeth into the sink. But he worries about his mom and he misses his ex. He has regrets. Wounds.He gets scared, but he knows it's push on or die.Dislocated is a quick, engaging read that can transport you, for a few minutes or a few hours, into a day that's a lot worse than the one you're having, but that's also got excitement and heart.I can't wait to see what's next.
