I love Kevin Wilson's books. I enjoyed the other two books of his I've read a bit more than this one, but I still really liked this!

It has the charm and oddities and creeping sadness that I've come to love about his work.

And, as with Family Fang and Nothing to See Here, I'll be mulling this one over for a few weeks.

Note--this one contains some descriptions of self-harm which took me by surprise so I wanted to note it for others.

This book was wild!! Gave me the same feelings that I had when reading The Last Housewife and I didn’t want to put it down.
