All in all, if you can look past inappropriate jokes that were accepted at the time (i.e. one of the main characters being stereotyped, lots of sexual innuendos, and a biphobic comment or two), this book could be fun for someone in their early teens. But for a 20 year old who reads books that are much more advanced than this, it just didn't hit for me.

The amount of stereotypes, racism and homophobic comments made it hard to enjoy.
I wouldn't reread it. As for recommending it, I would say no but you may find it more enjoyable read than I did.
