Great pace, interesting plot, captivating characters and a plot-twist that managed to shock me but still made sense in relation to the story.
The book's main flaws stem from clichés of the genre (characters who desperately love each other after talking twice, a vulgar number of coincidences and far-fetched solutions, a character who stumbles and falls all the time despite being able to fight several people at the same time , etc). But that doesn't stop the book from being entertaining , interesting and really, really funny.
