I had such a good time with this book. It was the first book in a long time that I stayed up too late reading. I thought it was a super great unraveling, and I can't wait to read more from this author. And what a COVER. Piglet's parents were so painfully awkward. It just felt so visceral and animal. A great look at how for some of us, food controls half of our lives. Also really appreciated the whole when-your-friends-have-babies-you-lose-them-forever storyline .
