Very interesting little journey through a very funny history. The writing isn't the greatest- got bored at some parts and he really goes off script with random topics for pages and pages. However the history of this nation was basically begging to be written and this is a good prespective, not just as general history but as the way it effected the world around it.

For a first book, had some downsides, though I'm looking forward to the rest of the series. Some parts of it felt on the nose with it's metaphors but I really enjoyed the detail and characters so far.

This book felt pointless. It was engaging enough, but didn't provide me with much emotion besides that but a feeling of disgust. The ending was particularly bad, and just makes me further question all of this book's morals more. The plot holes as well, oh my god, all the plot holes and lose ends (the ending answered like 2 things and left the rest as is), destroyed a lot of my introspections on this book as I thought about it further and further.
Just read another one of McFadden's, you've got plenty of much better choices than this generic gross mess

Felt very inconsistant, esp with Rafi's prescene as an unreliabls narrator. Plus, certain ends left loose with some things feeling a bit forced took this down a bit

Really funny book overall, with quite a bit of laugh-out-loud moments, and I loved the logic they extruded, but parts of it left me yearning for a better book that felt more like a true mockery of a gospel text instead of the meta take on It, with the rebuttals, analysis, and others feeling unesseary and dragging the pace down.
