Lots of twist in the plot. Never know quite what's true until the very end. A page turning read. The chores will pile up while you read as once you've started this book, you can't put it down!
Helpful Score: 3
Fry's awesome goofiness from his "Bit of Fry and Laurie" days is very evident in the prose, though the plot is a bit haphazard at times.
Helpful Score: 1
BRILLIANT, HILARIOUS AND SUBLIME
Helpful Score: 1
Very funny, which isn't surprising given the author's previous works, but also very well-constructed, original, and thoughtful.
Helpful Score: 1
A novel by British film and TV star Stephen Fry (comedy partner of Hugh Laurie of "House"). VERY, VERY funny!
