With that said, I don’t feel like book has a resolution, and it leaves readers dangling. I don’t mean that the characters’ lives have to be neat and clean, their futures rosy with possibility. But when a dark and sudden twist
If you’re in for a dark read—darker even than the premise of a pregnant, fledgling alcoholic teenager who’s grieving the death of her alcoholic father and becomes a stalker—I highly recommend it. The book is funny, and despite the content, it does feel “light” in some ways, at least until the end. But I’ve seen it described as fun and light-hearted and a romp—and those, it certainly is not.

"Pizza girl" is pregnant and unhappy. She finds herself falling for a customer and it gets out of hand. Her mom and boyfriend, Billy, worry about her every night. She sneaks off into her dead Dad's shed to drink. She doesn't have any friends. She seemingly hates her life until Jenny.
"..if you were pushed off a cliff, you'd grab hold of anything resembling safety."
I read this in three days and if it wouldn't have been for responsibilities, I would have devoured this in one sitting. Read this book.
