I really enjoyed this. It was dark and philosophical and sad, but also a bit silly and fun.

This is the only book I can think of that I’ve read recently that has made me laugh; I love the outside observations of humanity and things we don’t realize are as weird as they are. This book was fun, but I felt it got a bit bogged down by sappiness at the end and felt a bit slow compared to the the first half. Still, it was fun while still giving a lot to think about.
