I had a tough time getting into this book, and though part of it was simply timing, I think another part was just how unlikeable the main character Wallace was at the start. However, I am very glad I stuck with it because my patience was rewarded with excellent character development, a lot of heartfelt moments, and the sense that I, like Wallace,

had become part of a lovely little chosen family

in the end.

I'd like to think that after you die, you wake up in a tea shop surrounded by nice queer people.

I overall really enjoyed this book despite some critiques. I loved the characters and ugly cried a lot. I do feel some level of disappointment about the ending and at times the storyline seemed all over the place but I loved the characters so much that it ended up evening out.
