This debut novel by Mary Walsh was something I had a really hard time putting down. I have to admit though, I am very confused by the blurb on the back of the novel..."brilliantly funny?" I had a hard time finding the "funny" moments in the book. And honestly, I am totally okay with that.
This is a very real, heart-wrenching story of a young Canadian woman who has to deal with the Ghosts of the choices she made in her youth & I would highly recommend it.

I really enjoyed this one! While I secretly was yearning for some dinosaurs to pop up (Spoiler alert- they never did!) this did not disappoint.
Really cool concept for the book, but it took me way too long to get into it. Like over halfway through long.
Maybe I would have rated it higher if I had read it versus listened to it via audiobook?

If you've never read any Jeff Lemire, you are missing out! Lemire's stories are heart-wrenchingly beautiful, and his latest (Roughneck), lives up to that sentiment.
Set in the heart of a small Canadian town, a former NHL player struggles to keep his troubled past from controlling his post-hockey life. This task becomes elevated when his equally-damaged sister rolls into town one winter unannounced.
