A solid 4. Lots of themes in this book, grief, religion, death, guilt. A quote on the back said it was hilarious and heartbreaking, which I don’t think really was accurate as I didn’t find any parts particularly funny. Also the book included racial slurs and I feel like it could have redacted them on the page rather than written in them and we would have understood what they meant???
