3 stars
Took me some time to finish.. Definitely way better at the beginning. Kind of funny.
Turns out, the devil isn't bad at all...

Sunny is working as an apprentice PI who becomes embroiled in a mystery. She also has a cat who plays an important role at the end.
A smooth, easy read, well-worth your time.
"Review" more like "useless thoughts nobody cares about"
I had to read this book for a group presentation in my Russian literature class.
It was a fun book and I liked it more than "Heart of a Dog." I definitely laughed a lot more.
To be honest, I like the excerpts from the Master's novel a little bit more than everything else in the book.
I also watched the 2005 mini series and I swear, if I hear Woland's theme one more time I will lose it. It's still a great mini series though, do watch it!
