4.5

A really funny book that also deals with hard hitting topics like grief and identity. This book will have you laughing in one chapter and crying in the next. Some of the side characters fell a little flat for me but the story is really about the kids and uncle Patrick. So I didn't mind that much. Will definitely be looking into other books by this author.
