I had an idea what this book was gunna be about and then it was about what I thought it was gunna be about. It was a really intense allegory for daddy issues through the lense of being trapped in a whale. Yep. And man did Jay come out with scars. We are reading this for my coffee shops book club and I can't wait to hear everyone's perspectives. Or yours... Give em to me!?!
