This book certainly lives up to its name. It was funny, suspenseful, and well written. However I cannot in good conscience call anything that made me think “thank god that’s over” once I’ve put it down successful. It felt more like an action movie than a book, but if an action movie spit the same banal hellish freuidian viscera at you over and over again. The disgust just plateaus after a certain point. I didn’t like it, but I’m sure the things I didn’t like it for are things it did on purpose, so for what it was trying to be it was quite good.
