Beautifully written and something I needed to read and didn’t know I did. Life isn’t perfect but it’s not supposed to be and this book embodied that completely. From the characters trying their best to the writing the book had me laughing and crying.

I am so impressed by these characters. They are flawed, they are interesting, they seem well flushed out. It's goofy and sad at the same time because it's dealing with serious topics
