Funny for a couple hundred pages, but the jokes just repeat and the flaws get more noticeable as it goes on. The female characters lack and depth and the run of duck jokes and fat jokes just goes on and on.

It’s not the dude-bro-y book it appears to be, and is actually quite touching. Very funny and EXTREMELY well written, Top 10 on my shelf. Unfortunate lack of more women, though that is passionately rectified in the next book and the ‘main’ women in this one are still cool as hell. But, if I must read about men, I would gladly choose these ones!
