Laugh-out-loud funny at parts. The first half of the book is superior to the second, but still a great story; I didn't want to put it down and finished the book in a day. The humor and mockery of books on bestseller lists and their authors is certainly the main draw for this book, but in a way this book is also a tribute to those books, and to literature in general. In many ways this book is hard to explain, but a great read. Highly recommended.
