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.

This is quite possibly the strangest book I’ve ever read and that’s saying something. I liked some aspects of it, but ultimately it was far too sexual for my liking. I realize now it is an adult romance but going into the story I was not aware. Make sure you know the genre of your reads please.
It didn’t become interesting until phase 2 and then it didn’t really have a plot until phase 3. The ending was a good one, but Fizel should’ve been dealt with. There were so many symbols that I often lost what was actually supposed to be the focus, which is Leigh-Cheri and Bernard.
