Phenomenal book that I regret finishing. This book had me giggling in one chapter, then immediately panicking the next. With so many tales of "coming of age", it's fascinating to read a story of "getting the band back together one more time".

Clay Cooper is a fantastic lead, who is so human and relatable, and the entire group is just incredibly unique and I loved their interactions together along the journey.

It’s not the dude-bro-y book it appears to be, and is actually quite touching. Very funny and EXTREMELY well written, Top 10 on my shelf. Unfortunate lack of more women, though that is passionately rectified in the next book and the ‘main’ women in this one are still cool as hell. But, if I must read about men, I would gladly choose these ones!
