This book was truly a delight to read, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I only sort of wish the main character had been slightly less terrible to other people but by the end he did make up for it sufficiently in my opinion.

This book was a bit of a slog, but quite endearing. I liked watching the characters grow, and I liked the self-aware nature of the narrative.
