AMAZING debut novel. I was lucky enough to receive a an ARC of this book, and I loved it the whole time! Reminiscent of Catcher in the Rye in the writing style and the energy of the story. Felt like I was wandering through life with the main character, I love how things kinda clicked into place for him at the end. Does a great job showing how sobriety is just the next (although crucial) chapter in someone like Monk’s life!
