SpoilerI thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I'll be honest in saying I didn't expect to love it so much! I listened to the audiobook which is narrated by Olivia Coleman, and she's brilliant. It sounds like she had great fun voicing all the characters and it's certainly infectious.This is such a fun, sweary, heartwarming and chaotic book. The first two parts remind me a lot of the Midnight Library (but with humour and plenty of "fuck off's" added). Part 3 is action-packed and I thought it really pulled the whole story together, but realise other readers disagree and found the switch in pace a bit jarring. I also liked the very end, as it made sense for things to have had some sort of effect. The story approaches grief in a refreshing way - you can miss someone but still know they weren't perfect, and in hindsight, had flaws that could wear you down. I loved that it was said plainly "I wasn't well" when talking about depression, because it's sometimes not said outright. Certainly worth a read/listen, I look forward to Robert Webb's next book!
