"It’s rather like smashing a sixer in conkers."

I may need to be more up-to-date on British gibberish to understand this book.

Absolutely brilliant but it took a lot of pushing through for me. It’s 90% character driven, not exactly a page turner. Having said that, the characters here are so real and compelling, you can’t help but get drawn into the world. I loved the writing style (though the Imelda sections were a little testing at times).

I can see why this is hyped up so much!
