This book has a great antihero protagonist, and it is a wonderful take on what it means to include those who are too often marginalized for all the wrong reasons.

This is a heartwarming slightly magical adventure of a man who desperately needs one. If you allow it to, this book will wrap itself around your heart and give you a hug. Then stay with you for years to come. It’s a book I always recommend. It’s worth the read.

I loved it! It was so sweet all around and really showed love for the characters exactly as they were. I liked the body positivity slipped in there too.

Amazing and warm. A book that makes you really think about things from a different perspective. Things aren’t always as they seem and things aren’t always bad.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book! It made me think about those that don’t fit the ideals of mainstream society, but also the effects of trauma (big and small) on how we treat each other and our capacity for kindness and grace.
