The Absurd Life of Barry White is dark comedy genre and has a cracking title and the pint of beer works very well on the front cover. I think the front cover stands out a lot from other book covers. The main character is Barry White Jr, and he is a bit of a gambler and suddenly Barry's look is in and he wins. Then his life starts to change. It did take me a few chapters to get into, and then I could not put the book down. The Absurd Life of Barry White did make me chuckle in places and is very well written. I did like Barry and I thought it was funny he won the big but then was trying to get rid of it because it was coming a burden to him. I think I would keep it but can understand why it would be burden, but you would then try to make it your new normal, must have been hard for him.

Thank you @paul_alkazraji @KellyALacey @lovebookstours #Ad #LBTCrew #BookTwitter #FreeReview #FreeBookReview for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Ben's Game is a very short story and is 10 pages long. I thought the book dived straight in to the story and held your attention from the start. I wished it was a bit longer but hopefully Paul Alkazraji will make it in to a longer story just because I was left wanting more. Furthermore, I found the writing to be powerful due to the theme of the story which is about a small boat crossing in to the UK and that three people are waiting for the main character Beni. I felt real emotion for Beni when reading this short story . I also liked the pictures in the story and found them beautiful to look at. Very engaging and interesting read and I have never read any of Paul Alkazraji books before, but I will look out for them now. 5 stars.
