So very Boris - lots of overblown language, semi-relevant interjections and a somewhat cynical view of the British public sector and the UK's 'special relationship' with the US. Frankly, it would have been a lot more readable with fewer characters (they did tend to get mixed up) and less verbage. I want to say that there could also be more character development, but the whole book took place over a period of about four hours, and how much can the characters develop in such a short space of time?
