I thought this was going to be a bit of black humour and quirkiness, and it ended up making me cry.
It's very sweet and quite fun, (though everyone is very broken which is kind of full on, but on purpose), and I did like it, but holy shit did this book make me sad. Far more triggering than I thought it was going to be.

larayn's review
It is funny, especially in the beginning, but the subject matter couldn't get any heavier. Seriously, so many triggers here.
As far as the quality of the book, it's highly readable and I liked it.
The message is important. The "mythology" of the book started to fall apart toward the end and stop making sense, though.
