For many, you either love this book or you hate it. As a work of literature, let's be honest, it's not great. The plot is fairly straightforward and the characters don't have great depth. What makes this book stand out are the references to 1980s pop culture. For me, some of it just passed me by whilst other elements gave me a real sense of nostalgia. Overall, a fun, if somewhat forgettable read.
