Summary: I enjoyed this book. It made me laugh a lot. Our main character is a funny, irreverant gal with deep problems. This book is written in a "stream of consciousness" style, so any random thoughts that pop into her head are there for you to read. Though the plot is tragic, I found a lot of humour in the delivery, which was needed. Our book club could not decide if they were all dead or alive at the end of the book! We had differing opinions on this, all backed with well thought out arguments taken from the text itself. You decide for yourself.
