Captivating book. I had already seen the show, but the book was quite different in a few ways. I devoured it. TBH the ending was a little disappointing??? And this dude is really into describing what tits and balls are doing.

The first 800 pages were fantastic, but the final 200 or so were a thing of beauty.
