DID NOT FINISH: 33%
I was just expecting it to be different than it was. Elizabeth and Calvin were cute but I didn’t expect their relationship to take up so much of this book. I kinda of…didn’t really care. 

It was too “quirky” for my taste.
First, the way Calvin died was dumb. He died by slipping on motor oil then getting run over by a police car, really? Second, we in turn get perspectives from the dog. Why am I in the pov of the dog?? Third, the fact she changed the inscription on his grave from a nice quote to a whole chemical formula for happiness. I’m sorry, I found it really dumb.


Sadly, this wasn’t it for me.
