DNF at 54%. I couldn't continue torturing myself.. if the book hasn't gripped me in the first 50% then the last 50 won't make a difference. The writing was just pompous and irritating, the writer seems to blame his father for his own mistakes rather than introspecting and realising he was on the wrong. Maybe this isn't the type of writing for me, I honestly went into this book thinking I would be wildly humoured and would laugh all the way only to be extremely disappointed.
