Up In the Air

I hadn't noticed initially that this book has been made into a movie, but this did make me want to read it more. although, from the first few pages I started to get the feel that this novel was going to be a boring and tedious thing to read. This story is about Ryan Bingham, who is leaving his job, trying to make a self-help type of book, and wants to work for Mythtech. The book spans over about a week in the the life of Ryan, who is trying to obtain 1 million frequent flier miles before his time in his current job is over. Again i found this read to be rather boring, but then again I'm also far from a big reader and i usually think most books are boring.

  1. I think your conclusion about this novel is for the most part accurate. The book does start out a bit dry. I think you will take more of a liking to it as you dive further in. Maybe the story will be presented in a better way for you in the film version! Good post.
