This is only the first book l've read by Robbins -but already I would put him among my top authors from this work alone. Impossible to describe, his writing style is made up of long poetic tangents intertwined with random philosophical points and all the while undoubtedly falling under the comedy genre. This book in specific was such a fun read- I was reading it in little bits and pieces in between tables I was serving at work. 
Would highly recommend him and this to anyone who's bored of what they're reading or trying to find something new and exciting to get into.

i read this for the first time in college and i definitely enjoyed it more then

better than half bad, probs one of the tops of its specific era of humor but if you only half enjoy the genre you’re only gonna half enjoy this. some nuggets of great in there, if you can get past the absurdism and weird smut.
