Four Stars - A Life. Reviewed.

The second book from acclaimed writer and journalist Joel Golby How much of your life do you review? Books, TV, film, music - the reviewable things? Ever tried going a little further, reviewing the intangibles, the abstract, the ''weird'': a houseplant; the sunlight on the pavement on a crisp spring day; being embarrassed; that strange wave you do at cars when they slow down at zebra crossings. A dead houseplant. From almond croissants to the concept of life itself , Joel Golby embarks on a journey through modern living, leaving no stone unturned - no one thing unreviewed - to consider what it all really means; why we all care so much about opinions; and whether, deep down, it''s better to live a life that''s good rather than, well, five stars out of five.
