Soooo freaky deaky and fun and weird and oddly beautiful? Made me laugh. I’m really glad I listened to it. Melissa is an incredible storyteller and narrator. I am excited to get a physical copy to read over and over again because I feel like I will get something new out of it every time I read it.

You kind of have to let this one take you for the ride. It's chaotic and gross and funny, with horror/absurd tendencies. There is a pretty bad earthquake. The cover is bananas. But family lies at its heart! Read it.

This is one of the most confusing books I have ever read. I think it could have benefited from a lot of editing a huge amount of potential it just needs so much work
