This book was a fun romp of a read, with my main qualm being that it plunges the reader into unfamiliar worlds very quickly, with not a lot of time to mentally adjust. 
However, once you get your bearing, the characters are relatable, diverse, and interesting. And their activities even more interesting. I would love to enter this world over again.

Every world has its monsters.

Okay, that? That was super fun. I’m going to be diving into the second book as soon as I get my grubby little hands on it.

Finna follows two recently broken-up exes as they have to travel through the multiverse to find an elderly grandmother, who slipped through a wormhole while exploring an IKEA-like store. I feel like giving any more away would be spoiling, but I found this short novella about personal growth, retail hell, and monsters very entertaining and thought-provoking. Plus, it's queer.

LitenVärld accepts no responsibility or liability for any losses or injuries that wormholes incur, since they fall under the Act of God clauses on our employee insurance.

3.5

3.5 ⭐s. A whimsical little romp through a wormhole inside an Ikea-like chain store that manages to be both amazingly anti-capitalist and incredibly diverse while also feeling super homey and comforting. I'll definitely be picking up more from this author.
