It's still a good story with not quite unlikable main characters. I'm ready to continue on this series again as I just found out there's a fourth book (super excited since the author's writing has gotten so dang good with the Zoey Ashe series).
Definitely a must read for any time of year, but especially October. Who doesn't need a little existential dead and body horror every now and then?

It’s needlessly vulgar, racist, sexist, and full of slurs that serve no purpose. The occasionally actually funny joke does nothing to counter these or make the book anywhere near worth it.
If you like this book you probably also think that Tyler Durden is a good role model.
Every time I looked to see how much I had left of this book I was disappointed. It drags. There’s always more nonsensical toilet humor and psychedelic crap, and none of it does anything to tell a coherent story. I was wishing EVERY character died by the end.
I don’t normally leave reviews, and especially not with text, but this book was so unpleasant that I had to get my feelings out somehow.

Plus the plot’s not super compelling it more feels like a series of mini stories than a whole novel (although maybe it all comes together at the end or something)

One of the characters was in the special education class and casually called the r word repeatedly. Her health is made fun of too. Women are higly sexualized with little to no personality.
The representation in this book is terrible. Some good things in the book but it is definitely annoying and gross.

cranedphoenix's review against another edition
Didn't think I'd want to drop a book after forcing myself to finish Jane Eyre and yet here we are
I swore I liked the movie but maybe I'm misremembering
The book is honestly nonsensical trash and that's saying something as someone who like the tv show 12 oz mouse
Just every -ism in a book and unlikeable characters I wasn't about to force myself to finish
