Every character showcases a different (but always pretentious) perspective. This book fails because every character is unlikable. And in a book that relies on the reader rooting for the underdog protagonist, every page was a horror.
Also, the true history of "posh" dictates that it is NOT an acronym, thus voiding 90% of the rationale for the characters' 176 page ego trip.
The cover, however, is very cool and artsy"
This is my favorite book review ever. It is so spot-on that I am throwing a little party for myself right now. Fuck you, The View from Saturday, fuck you.
