Whatever

Strong first chapter, funny moments from the workplace, and some good prose. But ultimately just kinda sad and that's all.

Antonio Bolio

Funny and real. I felt as if a friend was telling me a story that he'd never told anyone.

M. Marques

I expected too much of a book I shouldn’t have had expectations for.

Katie Chua

houellebecq debut novel and i highly enjoyed it. it goes by fast and feels a little directionless at first but it picks up steam about half-way through maybe 2/3 a way through and it felt worth it.

Houellebecq's first novel was a smash hit in France, expressing the misanthropic voice of a generation.

Josh Clement

I liked the depressive rants and one liners like this: "Saying you’ve lost your car is tantamount to being struck off the social register." I liked the healing experience in nature.

Beatrice Falby

If you want to waste a few hours to give yourself a headache, then please pick up this book.
