82. The Best of Times

Rated 3.5 Stars
From Library

I liked this book - sort of.  It kind of drug along in spots and I think I would have liked it a lot better had it been about one third shorter.  I got a little tired hearing about some of the characters.  Especially the whiners and also William who was just too, too good to be true.  I also thought that Barney should have cut Toby a little slack considering the circumstances.  Oh well . . .

"On an ordinary Friday afternoon, on a major motorway outside of London, a trailer truck suddenly and violently swerves across fives lanes of traffic--careening cars into one another like dominoes and leaving a trail of chaos and confusion. Within the space of a minute, an astounding miles-long pileup has amassed. As the survivors await help, their stories unfold.--From publisher description."
