What a fun, uplifting read. Filled with romance, philosophy, humor, wit, and outrageous plot developments. Totally recommend as an easy, grab and go kind of read.

I've read several Tom Robbins books and come to the conclusion that Tom Robbins is not for me. I don't enjoy his writing style or the way he writes about women and I don't find his books particularly funny.

adventurous dark emotional funny inspiring mysterious reflective tense medium-paced

Plot- or character-driven? A mix
Strong character development? Yes
Loveable characters? It's complicated
Diverse cast of characters? No
Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I didn't really enjoy the book and the humor in it. It was hard for me to get into the story and characters.

I read this for the first time when it was published in 1980. This is one of a handful of books that I go back and read on a regular basis, at least every 2 to 3 years. It never fails to give me that same sense of awe and amazement as it did the first time. It was my ticket to realizing that I didn't have to see the world like everyone else did.
