It did not take anything away from the book however. Thoroughly enjoyed it on many levels. Jimmy is a character you can't help but fall for. My wife even commented on how much I was laughing while reading 'Last One In'. I'd been reading Anna Karenina, Crime & Punishment and We before this, so not much to laugh about there. Last One In was clearly what I needed. I had the same thing and had to engage in a bit of flitting back and forth. It did not take anything away from the book however.

Made for some alert reading in that section! LOVED the book! You have combined some serious eyewitness reporting on both the daily life of typical Marine enlistees (and probably Army as well) during the invasion and the first weeks of the Occupation with some telling vignettes of how the beginning of the occupation must have seemed to these enlistees and an embedded reporter, and wrapped it in a comic tale that was hard to put down (even with 30 pp. out of order). Bravo! My copy had no missing pages, but about 30 pages, from page 153 to 186, were out of order. Made for some alert reading in that section!

Things must be crazy at that printer. Strangely, my copy was missing some pages but included Chapter 31 of the latest Harry Potter book. Things must be crazy at that printer.
