dark?

no matter how many tattoos they put on Carrey he is not dark and depressed. too many times it looked like he wanted to make a joke. the script is week, the writer wanted to pretend he was smart for a while and ended up reaching with boring "plot twist"

awesomeness

At first glance the book reads like a coming of age story where the character has to “come of age” twice because he messed it up the first time. This is ironic because as you come upon the plot, a series of murders, in the late stages of the book you begin to wonder if you missed something. Re-reading the book for clues to the murders makes you feel a bit like the main character having to start over. The best and worst thing about this book is that it relies heavily on the assumption that you will read it again but if you’re willing to ignore the standard conventions you’ll find yourself lost inside the pages.
