I was blown away by the charming and insightful little book. It was full of quirky characters, moving symbolism, and touching interactions. I want this to be a movie by Wes Anderson so badly. Death is a difficult theme to pull off so well and this danced around it with a lot of grace. Also, it felt like every word was used in a meaningful way. Very impressive.
