The Gods are SMILING!!! Die Goetter lachen sich tot!

I'm a first reads winner! Unglaublich. Das Buch aber ist auf Deutsch. Das wird ja interessant, einen Rezension zu schreiben!

Update:

Ok. I admit it. I just couldn't plough through the really, really, really, really, really, really (even by German standards), really long non-verbal scenes.
