Simon and Schuster, the novel\u2019s publisher, described the book in press materials as \u201ca gripping exploration into madness and creativity\u201d and dubbed Logic one of the most creative artists of the generation. \u201cBobby Hall has crafted a mind-bending first novel, with prose that is just as fierce and moving as his lyrics,\u201d <em>Ready Player One<\/em> author Ernest Cline said in a blurb for the novel, adding that the book is \u201clike <em>Naked Lunch<\/em> meets <em>One Flew<\/em> <em>Over the Cuckoo\u2019s Nest<\/em> \u2014 if they met at <em>Fight Club<\/em>.\u201d&nbsp;But it is&nbsp;<em>Supermarket<\/em>\u2018s reviewers on Amazon, of which there are, at press time, 28, who are showering it with the most passionate, if vague, love.<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"5\">\n<p>This book is an amazing book I don\u2019t read but I\u2019m gonna read this book so proud of bobby<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote readability=\"6\">\n<p>Amazing book!
