π₯Ήπ₯ΉUgh, these characters have my heart! I felt the widest range of emotions while reading this book! I laughed out loud SO many more times than any books I’ve read in the recent past and teared up several times as well! There were also many audible “AWW”s I instinctively let out!
πLet me just say this: this book is a special kind of humor and sometimes the humor was downright dark and morbid….but oh, did I find this book to be hilarious. If you’re a fan of all things unique and quirky, this one is definitely right up your alley!
π»I think if I had to make some comparisons to previous books I’ve read, I’d call it a weirder mix of The Borrowed Life of Frederick Fife and The Love Elixir of Augusta Stern.
πRead if you love:
π³Quirky Humor
π₯°VERY unique and memorable characters
π»Cats
πRoad Trips
π§Books revolving around senior citizens
π³π³The ending of this book was nothing less than shocking. The whole plot just gets more brilliant the more I think about it! I think this would be such a blast to read with a bookclub, because the discussion would be a total HOOT!
πAnnie Hartnett, you took me on the wildest and craziest road trip to one of the strangest destinations and I’d 10/10 go on the journey with you again! I’m adding all her backlist books to my TBR and prioritizing them after this!
π§I feel very strongly that the audiobook is the best way to enjoy this story!! Mark Bramhall fit the bill to a tee! He sounded exactly like I would imagine an old crotchety man to sound (ππ) and I mean that as a COMPLIMENT π€©
βHow’s your weekend looking? Busy, chill, fun?
