After reading six Harry Potter books, this was a welcome serious reprieve. All this dude wants to do is chill in the backrooms but others have different plans. The titular character is perhaps one of the most charming and lovable characters I have ever read. Solid 5 stars and one of the best books I’ve read all year.
Graphic: Confinement, Emotional abuse, Toxic friendship
Moderate: Kidnapping
Minor: Gun violence, Murder, Injury/Injury detail
