Very thought provoking and hilarious story that I can confidently say you won’t have any idea what’s going on, and that’s somehow not a bad thing. I think my favorite thing about the book is that everything is unexpected the entire time, but never in the way you think it would be. Some things make sense, some things don’t. But it all works in the end and yet somehow doesn’t. I picked this book up in the library because it looked so odd and out of place and I’m so glad it did. Not gonna lie though, it can be confusing and hard to keep up with at times, but I never found that to be an issue because the main character himself also had a hard time keeping up and was confused most of the time. All in all, a very very good read and highly recommend if you like thought provoking scifi that can’t keep itself from cracking a joke about reality every other page. Truly loved it.
