I read a little under half of it and thought it was cringeworthy as hell.

I usually like strange humour but just found the whole thing tryhard.

I just read Lysistrata by Aristophanes. Which is a play not a book, but if you want to read something hilarious and are into the Greeks definitely pick it up.
It had me laughing out loud, prose about cocks is objectively funny.
