There were things in the book that I liked, some I didn't. To start with, the plot itself is actually quite clever and well thought of. The main character himself carried a good balance of wits and humor, which played well with his interactions with the other characters of the book.
The main problem with the book that I found was it's narration. While the tone was set to a very relatable, unobnoxious style, it was also quite dull at times. I did not find the text appealing or engaging enough, even if the plot worked really hard in the favor of the book.
Overall, there was nothing that stood out to me. It was an interesting read, a good way to pass an afternoon, but nothing about it would seem to make you be invested in it.
