Book Review: Teach Her

Teach Her by Mark Kotting
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

I received a copy of the book through NetGalley in exchange for my unbiased and honest review.

Teach Her is a story that revolves around a teacher named Shirley who separates from her husband Jim. The description for the book claims it is darkly humorous though for the life of me I could not find anything that can remotely be described as humorous at all.

The title would have the reader think it may be about the teacher (Teach Her -- geddit?) but everything seems to keep coming back to the barber Jim and his fixation on taking an adventurous trip. The son is more a head case than anything.

The only character that could be described as interesting was the ex-soldier who becomes Jim's apprentice. But then the character is pushed to the side and that is that.

Honestly, the book is irritating more than anything else.
