Query: cartoonish

At times a disturbing book with nauseating characters who alternate between alcoholism,abuse and murder. I didn't find it frightening, scary or unnerving if anything it seemed overly cartoonish and at times a bit repulsive. Major complaint: too over the top. The plus in all of this though is that there is some dark humor wrapped within but the whole suicide thing and the abusive father was really too much and the whole violence for the sake of violence gig has been done one to many times.
