This is one of those books that, if I had the undisturbed time block, I could have killed in just a couple hours. It's an easy, YA-type read but with a really interesting concept: what if all the aspects of our personality were kitschy, stereotyped characters (calling it as it is) forming a team that helps us through our life's work? It's kind of fun to think of what your own cast of characters might look like, and how they might help or hinder you, say, before a big business presentation or something. It's a cute concept, a fun detective narrative, super easy to read, and ultimately pretty meta re: the writing process.
