5.0

One of the most lovely, absurd books I’ve read in a long time. A very sweet story about a (not explicitly but it’s clearly what’s going on) autistic eight-year-old boy with a special interest in saints and his ten-year-old brother with special interests in real estate and money.

Damien and Anthony live in a UK that’s about to switch over to the euro, and then they find £229370 in cash and have only a very small amount of time in which to spend it.

A ridiculous, whimsical, and hilarious story of inflation, grief, and family.
