I have loved Dave Eggers since reading AHWOSG. This quirky first novel didn’t disappoint. It’s a rollicking adventure to and from and through grief.
I want with all my heart to love all of Dave Egger's work, but this book was completely forgettable to me. :-(
Stunning. I'd give this one 4.75 stars if Goodreads allowed it. Fans of Jonathan Safran Foer will enjoy Eggers.

I loved "Heartbreaking Work..." and "What is the What", but this was a waste of time.
My favorite types of books are about trips with friends or are meditations in grief/loneliness and this is both.
