I would give this 50 stars if I could! The writing was just so devourable and the characters so complex and flawed. There were unconventional elements but not used in a way that felt out of place or jarring, I was just so drawn to the narrator and their lifestyle and oddities and I didn’t want to put it down. Amazing and not really describable !
