Last year I read 'Grown Ups' and stayed up until 2am unable to put it down. This isn't as complex and mature as that but it's still insightful as well as entertaining. The 1990s setting makes it a period piece and sparked lots of memories of that period in my life, when I was doing similar kinds of things to the characters here. There are things I don't think Keyes would write now - some cartoonish fat-shaming for example - but god knows what I was like at the time.
