If You's Joe Goldberg is the prototype for sociopathic creep, Dr. Harding is the primordial ooze from which he sprung. I haven't disliked a narrator so intensely, credit to Jha.

This book takes on so many charged topics, but perhaps too many. Toxic masculinity, codeswitching, racial biases, and more – all set against a backdrop weeks before the 2016 election – WOOF. However, Jha has written an important book here. The Laughter is one to be discussed.
