ashleyjean6 's review for:

The Guncle by Steven Rowley
4.5
emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Loved this so much! It reminds me of the way Thursday Murder Club deals with heavy, real topics with brilliant humor. It deals a lot with death and grief; but simultaneously is one of the wittiest and funny things I've read in awhile. Loved the atmospheric Palm Springs setting; it's a great summer read (think Kate nights, pools, ice cream, hot days). Highly recommend. I also loved the audiobook!!
