Description
The stunning debut novel from one of the most creative artists of our generation, Bobby Hall, a.k.a. Logic.
“Bobby Hall has crafted a mind-bending first novel, with prose that is just as fierce and moving as his lyrics. Supermarket is like Naked Lunch meets One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest—if they met at Fight Club.”—Ernest Cline, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Ready Player One
Flynn is stuck—depressed, recently dumped, and living at his mom’s house. The supermarket was supposed to change all that. An ordinary job and a steady check. Work isn’t work when it’s saving you from yourself. But things aren’t quite as they seem in these aisles. Arriving to work one day to a crime scene, Flynn’s world collapses as the secrets of his tortured mind are revealed. And Flynn doesn’t want to go looking for answers at the supermarket. Because something there seems to be looking for him. A darkly funny psychological thriller, Supermarket is a gripping exploration into madness and creativity. Who knew you could find sex, drugs, and murder all in aisle nine?

The plot was interesting but the main character not so much, he got on my nerves and there was a lot of irrelevant information that we could have gone pass by. Some characters were just there, not adding any value but to just support the main character which also somehow didn't work for me. The story was supposed to be a thriller and it turns out to be something else entirely by the end of it, I sort of did guess the plot and where the story was headed within the first 30 pages and yet gave it the benefit of doubt. However, the main character, even though as he said was pretty harm-less and sweet he got on my nerves and all I thought while reading the book was -- How do I punch him? or maybe kick him? Well if nothing else... this book did sort of make me a violent creature!
