genuinely really funny. like sancho is actually king and don quixote is just so stupid it makes me happy. not a bad book to read at all (it’s literally in the canon we know this)

LIBRO DE LECTURA

A veure. Valoració.
Ha sigut a la vegada millor i pitjor del que m'esperava. Vaig començar molt motivada i interessada (durant els 2 primers capitols 😅) i no em va desagradar (fins i tot va haver-hi algun moment en que describien com llegia massa i estava boig que vaig pensar sipp, jo també). Però llavors arriben les parrafades de les que no entens casi res i els capítols eterns... És que hi havia moments en els que volia agafar una màquina del temps per dir-li a Cervantes que es relaxés una mica. En definitiva, que he llegit coses pitjors (lazarillo de tormes) però estic molt contenta de que ja ho hagi superat :'). 

Somewhat entertaining, very weird, and so so long.

buenísimo

I know it's a classic, but this wasn't really for me.

DID NOT FINISH

I honestly didn’t really enjoy this book much. I didn’t find it as hilarious most of these reviews do and i personally don’t like the writing style. I loved the idea of the plot line but i felt like the book just dragged along endlessly.

This one will require a re-read, or several, to fully appreciate. However, it had people vomiting into each other's mouths and several bouts of diarrhea, so there was plenty to like about it for sure.
