Having lived in the UK for the last 9 years, I figured I should read
more of one of the most successful young British authors. After all, before the
start of my BA, Starter for 10 did
get me incredibly excited about the prospect of going to university.
Like with all of Nicholls’s books The
Understudy is nice enough. It touches the right notes and is gracefully
funny. Hardly a masterpiece, you nonetheless grow fond of the book’s
protagonist, and wish that things work out for him, or at the very least that
he doesn’t mess up miserably.
