Not my thing, but very well written. A dislikeable, real and fleshed out main character.
The introduction is full of spoilers so I'd recommend saving that until after you've read the book.

So much of this is awful, but the way the stories from the start of the project are so similar to those in the present day is particularly upsetting. This has been going on for so long, so little changes, and none of it for the better.
If this is their most accessible work then damn I do not want to read their other stuff.
That said, I found this a very interesting, if quite slow and dense read. I was taking notes on it as I was going and there several points where I had to re-read a sentence two or three times to try and parse out the meaning. I'm also not familiar with a lot of the terminology used so had to keep stopping to look up what various academic terms meant.
An interesting book, but I'm not quite sure what to tangibly do with what I've learned from it.
Also, I never want to see another rhetorical question so long as I live.

Warm, moving and above all, laugh out loud funny. Which will get you some worried looks from people who know you're reading a cancer memoir.
