I don't know how I made it through this book. Yes, it takes place in bygone years but what Peregrine Pickle considers good jokes on his friends seem downright mean to me. Some parts made me laugh a lot. Other things he did were hard to fathom. I doubt I'll look for volume II.

A bunch of old white males. No BIPOCs anywhere. Everything written before 1992 is rAycst and must be erased.
