oh, the obscurely profound aphoristic sentences of the MFA set. they are so short. and say so little. yet we are moved by them because we understand that they are laden with meaning and deep significance and therefore they must be.

This was unexpected but what a book! For a book with a zombie as its narrator, it was such a gorgeously human story — heart wrenching love and loss and grief. Be prepared for it to be a little abstract at times. 

The only reason I’m not at a full 5 star rating is because of the pacing in the middle. It felt SLIGHTLY draggy. That’s said, I’m fully aware how fried my attention span is so do with that what you will. 

The grandmother and child wrecked me in particular.
