Review of 'The Master and Margarita' on 'Goodreads'
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...

This ribald, carnivalesque satire - featuring the Devil, true love and a gun-toting cat - was written in the darkest days of the Soviet Union and became an underground sensation. --back cover

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!
