But, after reading the sample I realized it was just my kind of book.

Edit: I'm studiously ignoring the fact that the main character looks like a hipster with a goatee.
I read the six chapter sample...and couldn't like the character. Too self-centered. I was really glad I read the sample on the author's website. If the book were cheaper, I'd probably still read the book because the writing was good...but not at full price. He was just too into himself.
