katewritesThis book reminds me of that person who you're talking to and they're telling you about going to the store and then all of a sudden they say something like, "And then Mark ran naked through Florence and of course he got arrested." To which the only response is, "What the fuck?"
This is a book about 3 guys (and a dog) who go on a boat trip. That is the whole plot. The rest is just stories that JKJ tells that kind of relate to what's happening (or not happening) on the page.
It is hilarious. It's a completely unreliable narrator who is essentially shitting the shit with you for 200 some odd pages. It's the ultimate road trip story and no one learns any life lessons.
The only bad thing about this book is that it's a narcoleptic. I couldn't get through 5 pages without falling asleep.
