3.5 stars. This was fine, didn’t love it, didn’t hate it.

Haminasta oli viihdyttävä lukea. Ehkä hieman junnasi paikoillaan. Yllättäviä tapahtumia kuitenkin riitti ympyräkapunkiin.

The plot of this book is so random and unpredictable, and while reading it I never knew what was going to happen next. But, that's kind of the beauty of it.
The writing style is very different from the more western writing styles that I’m used to. The plot is the main focus of the story, rather than the characters, most of which are one-dimensional and lacking in my opinion. But, strangely, their lack of characterization has little effect on the overall plot of the story.
Anyway, 4/5 stars. If you want an unhinged and unpredictable book about a guy who's slowly dying and getting into strange predicaments with the rival mushroom company and some others, this is it. You'll also learn a bit about the mushroom business, which is a nice bonus.
