Hearing about how he lost his virginity gave me some hope, because I also lost mine to a fat chick in my early 20s. I haven't read any of his books yet, but he seems like a relatable guy.

Is this book legit or is it a hoax?

It's kind of a hoax. A gross exaggeration, let's say. Or, kinda like Norm's book. The particularities are fake, but the generalities fit.

I haven't read the book yet but based on the synopsis I would have thought normies would have cringed away from reading it within a few pages for it to become that successful, does it have functional prose?
Honestly thought I always assumed that it was going to be some post modernist pynchon esque novel at first, i'm pleasantly surprised.
