Remember that one episode in Friends where Ross teaches Joey how to use a thesaurus and he changes every single word in his letter to sound “smarter”? Yeah, that’s what Cassandra Khaw did with this entire book. To the point of barely making sense. After how much I hated Nothing But Blackened Teeth, I don’t know why I picked this one up. Definitely won’t be reading from this author again.
