funny slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

I would write a thorough review, but someone else wrote a note-perfect review one week ago -- and no need for me to reinvent the wheel. Go and read Rachel's review, I agree with all of it: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/7103013035

I'll just add that this seemed like an odd and sometimes unsuccessful homage to Tristram Shandy by Laurence Sterne.

3.5 stars.
