I liked this book, but it nearly got me in a slump. At first, I really enjoyed the fact that there were no chapters, the book felt like a long short-story, and I love short stories. Unfortunately, about halfway through, it got too annoying not having clean places to stop reading, so I just reading altogether. Eventually I picked it back up and got it over with.
Onto the book itself, I liked the story, I loved Death and I really enjoyed the humor and the philosophical arguments sprinkled all throughout the book. Unfortunately, its length was a drawback: too long for a single seating, too short to have chapters (apparently)
