Another heart warming weird book from TJ Klune. This one is my favorite besides the Cerulean Sea series, and I can understand how this one was written first. Heartwarming, found family, aliens, explosions . . .  This book has it all.

DID NOT FINISH: 92%

The narration began to feel too elementary for me. A lot of the story felt rushed.

Spoilers below

The romance/sex was very rushed and forced; the cult plot was kinda cheesy to me as well.
