Warning: you will fall in love with these characters, and then they will make you cry

The stories life of AJ Fikry is needless to say one of my new favorite books. It discusses many important issues from the academic communities disdain for certain kinds of literature, community, mental illness, losing yourself,  grief, and becoming a parent. It combats these serious issues with humor and lovable characters.
