Dark humour usually isn't my jam, but this was quite enjoyable. Although, there were quite a number of vicarious stress moments on behalf of
Jack
, especially at
the airport
and when
Linda continually kept deliberately misgendering him
.

I particularly enjoyed the spot on descriptions of Noosa and surrounds, it's inhabitants, and (spoiler to pg 137)
the grocery shopping experience
, and lines like (spoiler to pg 257)
"Linda knew whom she could trust: the neighbourhood Facebook group."
