Kevin says: “This book follows the story of a man who’s just turned 30 in New Orleans and his bizarre, hilarious, existential quest through the French Quarter. It perfectly captures a turning point in a person’s life and the crazy places that it can take them.”

Emma says: “I love this book because it’s one of the first I read that really captured a nuanced female perspective on anxiety. I love the character of Kate with here “eyes like saucers” and without ever labeling her disorder, Percy captures the nature of the relationship between beauty and fragility. It’s also just refreshing to see a female character that’s just a GD mess and who totally owns it and never loses her self-respect.”
