Better than Slacker, from what I remember. Funny, charming, with cringe-worthy and praiseworthy moments. Great character development, and I really love the ending.
I can't say much more, because the copy I read was an uncorrected proof. It even said, under Acknowledgements at the end, "2 pages TK." I kept finding little punctuation and spelling slip-ups. To be honest, it kind of made me feel like a privileged editor, so I'm not mad.
But I still want to read the final edition sometime. Who knows, maybe there's a whole extra scene or two. And I definitely wouldn't mind re-reading it.
