This Body's Not Big Enough for Both of Us by Edgar Cantero

2.0

This book takes a running leap into it's humor, forcing the reader it grab hold of the humor that's being shoved in their face. If the humor without a doubt works for you, great.

But if not, or if you need some warm up to get into the mood of the book, then sorry.

And the opening was just too much for me. The stylistic weirdness of this opening actually settles down later on into a much less in your face style. I might have enjoyed this if it built up instead of starting in overdrive and slamming on the breaks to become an almost normal book (at least compared to the opening), instead this book was fighting an uphill battle after leaving me grumpy. (Though I'm not sure a better disposed me would have been happy with main characters' misogyny and other personality issue--they are supposed to be humorous, so there's a chance I could have rolled with it, but maybe not).
