4.0

The book uses sarcasm and humour in its storytelling, which makes the book highly addictive and funny to read. Some serious topics are also mentioned, like SA and abuse, but the seriousness of these topics is not diminished just because the book is funny. The book is from 1977, but is still relevant and funny.

I highly enjoyed the book. I was not a fan of every chapter in this book, as some of them felt unnecessary and irrelevant to the story. The pacing was odd at times, and it was hard to keep track of the story's timeline. Still, an enjoyable read that I would recommend!
