1/10 A horribly boring book about a whining rich kid who has been able to get by from his rich aunt’s cheques. He has the task to go off and get a richer kid back to his parents before his mum dies. But ripley is a giant D and cares only for himself and others are just for being abused. If you like p g wodehouse then this might be up your alley, albeit with narcissistic twist. 1 star because the narrator was good.
