I loved this way more than I thought I would. I purchased a copy after seeing lots of positive reviews online but put it mostly down to "hype" and had a feeling I would ultimately be disappointed...damn was I wrong.
The characters are absolutely wild, completely bizarre and flawed and I loved getting to know them. It was funny and dark at the same time and I will definitely be recommending. I was also surprised by how successful the format is.
