I was wrong.
Perhaps it's supposed to be humorous, but it didn't strike me as remotely funny. The book - at least, for the first few chapters - revolves around a very strange family. They have a druggie son and an over-sexed ten-year-old daughter. The parents are even worse.
I found the people totally unbelievable, and the plot, frankly, disgusting. It takes a lot for me to give up entirely on a novel I have started; it's only happened with a handful over the course of many thousands of books I have read. This was one of them. I gave up, with a sense of relief, after about five chapters.
I would definitely not recommend this.
However, the author is popular and many people enjoy these books, so I am probably in the minority.
