Hug Chickenpenny: The Panegyric of an Anomalous Child by S. Craig Zahler

4.0

I recently received this book from the Night Worms monthly subscription package (you need to check them out if you haven't already), and this book looked so odd, with a title that sent me to the dictionary to find out what a couple of the words meant, that I moved it to the top of my TBR pile. Wow. So many feels with this book. Hug is such a great character that you can't help but fall in love with his spirit and resilience. At times the story channels the vibe of Series Of Unfortunate Events, and it has a strong Tim Burton feeling to it...man, it hooked me quick. Such a great surprise find.
