This book demands you cozy up in your favorite corner with your bevvie of choice - and dive in.

A sweet read that carries beauty, mystery, and depth. Keegan does a masterful job of bringing forth richness from a brief and precise narrative. This strikes at the heart of what it means to live a good life and find purpose. It brings us to consider, when the opportunity arises, do we acknowledge our conscience, or bury it?

I could see myself coming back to this one again and again.
