fluffypotamus's review against another edition

i didn't like the

"dad fucks the demon nanny"

bit when i first read this, and in light of recent revelations about neil, it feels even worse. hard to separate the art from the artist on this one.

This is by far the best book I have ever read.
And even if it wasn't, there was a

black kitten called Ocean

that would still make me love this book.
I have no words to describe how much this resonated with me.
