"I’m truly not sure what to say about this book… it is hilarious but also a little disturbing…this book is not for everyone…apart from dark humor, includes some misogynistic and racist fragments…or maybe we get offended about pretty much everything these days…definitely reaching for his other books!"

"Zany, fun, the plot moves along. Solid read when you want something that doesn't take itself too seriously."

"I’ve recommended this book to 3 different people and none of them liked it, which is shocking to me. If you like dark humor this is definitely for you. I laughed out loud on every page. Clever, twisted, sarcastic. Makes a tough subject like death funny and interesting. "

" This book is darkly hilarious! It has to be my all time favorite book by Christopher Moore. I read it over every year. You will fall in love with the characters! But, I will warn you: don't read this book in public, because you will laugh loudly! Or do! & then share how awesome it is!#comedy #darkhumor "
