I really enjoyed this book, a lot more than I expected to, 4.5 stars rounded up to 5. All the characters were really well done, and realistic. The main character is definitely not a hero, but you root for him anyway because despite his many issues and infidelities, he still come across somewhat as a good person which can't have been easy to do for the writer. The book is hilarious in so many places, I had to take breaks to finish laughing and wipe my tears before continuing. The ending felt a tiny bit rushed, but at the same time it fit the fast paced nature of the book, and thinking it through I don't think there was a better way to end it. I devoured this book in probably 4-5 hours total, I thoroughly enjoyed it and will read more books by the author!
