Just a BIt of Banter, Like...by Chris Westlake is exceptionally well written. The author has a unique writing style, smooth flow that can't help but capture attention. This rather humorous story leaves you feeling both funny and alive, creative thinking with a unique flavor. To me that's what writing is all about.The main character Nick, is just an ordinary "Joe" you can't help but love and more importantly relate to. For me the story shifted gears near the end of the first chapter when poor Nick got his heart smashed in one foul swoop, finding his girlfriend Katie, the love of his life, for 6 months anyway, in bed with his friend Paul. The author expertly takes you through the struggles, relationship and otherwise, of Nick looking to "find himself" again. Forced to face the wrongs/rights of the past and all that comes with moving out and then back home again.Honestly this book was a pleasure to read. Characters and plots were descriptive and engaging, the story flowed start to finish and the unique writing style of Westlake is something that I believe "made" this story. My recommendation is give this book a read and let the author know your thoughts! Bravo!
