I went into this book thinking that my friends were crazy for suggesting it. They are, in a good way.
Despite my initial hesitation (mostly due to the trigger warning list), I adored this book and most of it's characters. And the characters I hate are meant to be hated.
Granted, I think I'm going to be swearing off of cookie-and-creme ice cream for....a long time. About as long as I'll be crying with gleeful laughter at the questionable use of a mummified corpse.
