adventurous dark emotional funny tense fast-paced

How can someone have 17 brushes with death?????? Wild but eloquently written. 
Parts of this book are written in first person and parts are written in third person and the impact that has on the tone and the emotions is masterful used

fjcookie's review against another edition

lighthearted reflective fast-paced

2.5

very easy to read but a whole book of nothingness when it boils down to it. would have liked it to feel more complete with relationships and people who are only mentioned fleshed out more as it gets a bit confusing and feels like an unfinished tale.
