Honestly, I thought overall this book was pretty entertaining. I'm not expecting it to be the next great american novel but for a mobster/medical comedic drama it was very well written. At times I didn't know where the author was taking me on his long winded side stories, but in the end it all made perfect sense and I don't think I would change anything about the book. Even the foot notes, which irked me at first, made sense to do in the end.

I doubt this book will be for everyone. It is very profane and graphic at times, but if you're looking for a light, quick read (I read it at work over a span of about 4 hours) then this is for you!
