5.0

 The perfect little book that touches every feeling and scenario imaginable. From love and fear to anxiety (of course) and regret. From empathy and helpfulness to abuse and loneliness. From family and parenthood to divorce and death. All of this and much more are masterfully interwined in an almost absurd story.

It's a sad and happy book at the same time. And it earned 5 stars from me because it made me smile and giggle and think.
