Would recommend: Probably

Of Carl Hiaasen's books, I have only read Hoot, a young adult read, so I was initially scandalized by the flippant use of profanity and innuendo in this book. Which is for regular adults. After I calibrated myself, I liked the book enough. It was entertaining and mostly compelling, even if I wanted to smack the villain ACROSS HIS STUPID FACE the entire time. Some of the plot is really predictable, but there are some moments that were genuine and poignant. I think most people would enjoy this book.
