I won’t lie, I was worried about reading this book because I had seen it labeled as gross extreme horror. I ended up giving it a chance, and I’m glad I did! It turns out, 100% Match is comedy horror and I found it audaciously funny. Bart Bartley is a statistics obsessed oddball looking for love. Bart details his day deadpan, despite the obscene and seemingly random actions that he takes throughout the story, and frankly that’s what made it funny.
The humor in this story really reminded me of the raunchy and gross comedies of the 1990’s that I grew up with, so maybe I’m just desensitized to the yucky parts of this book. This book will absolutely not be for everyone, but it was certainly a book for me. I ended up reading it aloud with my husband, and we had a great time rolling in bed laughing.
