I tried reading this book a couple of weeks ago, but after a hundred pages or so, I hated Toby so much, and thought who cares about these people and their boring lives, and returned it to the library, happy I hadn't bought it. I was considering watching it, but after reading this, I doubt I'll bother. As a recently single woman, it cured me of ever even considering online dating, though. So I take the hours I spent reading it for the win.
I only stuck with the TV series because I liked the views of NYC and glimpse in to a wealthy lifestyle. The story becomes more rewarding when we start to see Rachel’s point of view. For me, she turned out to be perhaps the most likeable character amongst them.
If only we lived in the same latitude. Dude, you be the bomb!
BOOM

That is 100% how to view that time and effort. And Toby *is* quite hateable.
