Brian has arrived at university with a stronger desire than the acquisition of knowledge: he's going to be a star of TV's hottest quiz, University Challenge. But his progress on 'The Challenge' is somewhat stymied by his growing desire for the beguiling Alice Harbison, struggling to make her mark as an actress. And as obstacles impede their affair, Brian becomes more and more convinced that only overwhelming success on the quiz show will win her.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading David Nicholls books until I read this one. An unlikable main character makes constant embarrassing mistakes building up to a telegraphed and unlikely disaster that kills any desire to finish the book.

Not credible or enjoyable.
