    <body><![CDATA[I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is hilarious, but on the other hand, the author isn't constantly setting himself up for the next joke. This leaves plenty of room for character depth and even some incredibly sad, and--dare I say it?--heartfelt moments (of the non-cheesy variety, thank god). Also it brings up some social issues through the story telling itself, without it feeling like the author is trying to make some grand statement and disguising it as fiction. The only small complaint I have about this is the ending: it was mildly disappointing, but satisfying enough. ]]></body>
