4.5

4.5/5 - This book has been a wonderful surprise, even if it took me four years to pick it up after I bought it. Above all, I'd say this is an extremely funny and amusing story, apart from completely bonkers! It can be read pretty fast as a lot of things go on and you're never bored. What I liked the most about it was the narrator and the way the reader is led throughout the story. It's just great! I also enjoyed the fact that the author included interesting facts about history and science in a very interesting way. I didn't think my first read of 2022 would be this good, but I'm thrilled!
