This book had me in absolute fits of laughter from start to finish and will almost certainly one of my favourite reads of the year and a new go-to recommendation for those looking for a light hearted humorous read!
The humour to me is similar to that of the movie Austin Powers - in the kind of ridiculousness and wit throughout.
Don’t let my comparison fool you, though the plot is certainly not one to be taken seriously as a lighthearted humour read, the characters were well developed and interesting and the plot was cleverly thought out.
I would not change a single thing of this book and would absolutely love to see a screen adaption of this. Will 100% be reading again in future and recommending to all my friends.
