This was, indeed...really good, actually. The cover and title immediately caught my attention, but I was invested from page 1. 

The writing...oh my goodness the writing is so well done. The book is in written in first-person perspective, our main character Maggie. It's descriptive and quirky and full of character. I'm definitely keeping an eye out for any other books this author has written or will write.

For anyone who has gone through a hard break-up, the story of Maggie's will make you feel not as alone. You'll relate to her, and maybe you'll even say "wow, at least I never got to THAT point of crazy," and maybe you'll even feel better.

It's laugh-out-loud funny and insightful and so relatable. 5 stars, easy.
