4.5

This book is absolutely my type of book. The themes are fun and quirky while also being dark and grim. There were very few points where I knew what was going to happen next, so I was constantly kept on my toes. I loved the fast pace, though I could’ve kept reading this for hours and hours. Probably my only complaint is that it was too short!

Anti-fat shaming and some light racism. I don’t want this in my house.
