umbrionna 's review for:

Evenings and Weekends by Oisín McKenna
5.0
emotional hopeful lighthearted reflective relaxing sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Too real but also a little surreal, it gave me an existential crisis but in kind of a good way? I didn’t fully hate the feeling. 

Never thought I’d read a book that could simultaneously give me and existential crisis about aging and life but also make me laugh (in the figurative sense) at MULTIPLE fart jokes. I can’t remember reading another book that mentions farts in a non cringy way.. or at all. 

Fart counter: 2 — which isn’t a lot but more than expected for sure.
