my relationship with this book is kinda complicated.
i DID have a lot of fun with it and i definitel  enjoyed the writing style and the premise, but i also really needed my month-long break from it, because it was a LOT, especially with all the deaths and the excessive mention of alcohol.

It’s quite a fun lighthearted satire. Easy to pick up when not wanting anything serious.
