A very quick read (or in this case, listen--John Mulaney makes for a hilarious narrator, with a surprising range of voices, including 23 minutes of a Chico-level Italian accent for Mario, and a dim-witted if sincere Goliath).
If I were a bit younger, i'm sure these millennial-slanted stories would hit even harder, but even so--they were consistently funny and occasionally even unexpectedly sweet and sentimental. I'm used to literary fiction, which suddenly seems way more serious than it has to be.
