This is one of my favorite books.
I just love it so much.
I love the diversity of the charactersw and the humor as well.
The names of chapters are absolutely amazing {I psychoanalyze a goat or Gunilla gets blowtorched and its not funny, ok its a little bit funny or Phil the potato meets his doom or dont be a no-bro, bro or How to kill giants politely}
All the side characters are wonderful and I wish I knew more about them {which is how you are supposecd to do it}.
I find so much magic in this gorgeous world and I hope other people get to enjoy it as well.
I could never get sick of this story, the story of a homeless kid learning how to operate in a world he thought he understood, but finds that he didn’t. Its the story of learning and perhaps even sacrificing some things along the way.
