I do feel that Habeck has room to grow with her prose. The format of the book is pretty interesting and I appreciate that. Some of the things Lewis says to Wren are exceedingly beautiful imo. Maybe the simplicity throughout is quite purposeful and just not my taste.

Sometimes books have a cool premise and turn out so lame. This one is such a silly and unhinged concept and I grew very emotionally attached to the characters and their stories. I have so many feelings about this book and none of them are concise.
Highly recommend if you like Vonnegut-ish dry humor and fucked up dates with heartwarming impact.
**READ IT IN PRINT, I beg of you, the audiobook narration is unbearable, unless you’re stoned and laugh uncontrollably about how ridiculous that is, too**

A true life affirming novel.
Despite my adoration, I do find some of the messages and themes it's going for odd at best.
But anyways, the formatting of this book was continously grabbing and entertaining. Just a fantastic read all round.
