I LOVED the narrative voice of this book. The way the story is told made the story and the characters come alive. Also, I love a little bit of snark in a narrator's voice. So many beautiful moments sprinkled throughout a funny, delightful story. I don't remember the last time I stayed up too late to read a book. I think I "just one more chapter-ed" myself a dozen times before I actually went to bed.
