Amazing listen. Humor was addictive. I cared so much about the characters, as flawed as they were.

Alright and the humor sometimes hits, but never a belly laugh. I liked the message, but I didn't exactly care for the dark humor aspect of it. What did work for me were the relationships/friendships and how they evolved through the book. All in all, an ok read.

Such an unexpectedly fun and hilarious read that is also filled with important conversations about the role of women in the family and society.
