Bonkers is the absolute best way. I laughed out loud at the absurdity, and the smartness.

I can't decide if I like this book or not. That's something I like about it.

This was a weird book. The story line is so different, unexpected, & at times disturbing.
I enjoyed it overall.

One of the oddest little satires I've ever read!

It got off to a slow start that took a while to get me invested. It's definitely darkly funny from the get go with excellent quips, just-odd-enough characters, and a promising premise, but I didn't get reeled in until the second main character was introduced and the first main character started doing things. From there, things got weirder, darker, funnier, and all around more entertaining. If you like satires, especially of technology and modern communications, if you find blunt, nearly sociopathic characters engaging, if you enjoy throw away jokes just as much as big set-up plot punch lines, then maybe you'll also enjoy this twisted little story.

Nutting is like Dorothy Parker - if Parker was filthier, ballsier, and wrote about having sex with dolphins (which she totally should have).
