I have to admit I pick this book up because someone said I wouldn't like it because it was a man's book. What tosh! I loved it... They were a few difficult scenes to stomach. I have to admit. It's just fun. It keeps you on your toes. It keeps you emotionally invested. It makes you sad. It makes you angry. It's really funny. To that many books that I literally laugh out loud too, but this was one of them. I let out a very loud hooting laugh on the bus once. Probably not for the faint-hearted. Perfectly readable for a woman.

It's so much information I got lost halfway through the book. But overall great plot
