The List by Tara Ison 259 pages



In The List, Isabel and Al are in a relationship that is driving them both crazy. They continually break up and get back together.  Finally they compose a list of things they will do together to get them out of  each other’s systems, once and for all. The idea is to accomplish/experience each item on the list and then break up for good.

The book is well written in places but I never got to liking the characters.  Isabel is a brilliant medical student and Al works in a video store.  Al produced one hit movie and has since become somewhat of a bum.  I also never really saw what the two of them saw in each other, but then, many relationships remain a mystery to outside observers.


I would recommend this on some levels but on other levels I would say it is not worth the bother.
