I definitely did not know where it was headed, but its dark humor and straightforwardness were truly a treat. In all scenes and dialogues, as if stationed to face a hypocritical world that wants to feed on society's standards while screaming free will and to live on one's own, this book had its unique way of telling you to go live life however you want it no matter what other people say.
