A little slow at first but I loved it

Great storyline and I really love the characters and the tension between the MFC and MMC. It does get a little dull in areas or at least it was intentionally so e to slowly build tension. I had to push through a few chapters, sensing that the pace would pick up soon. The last 5-6 chapters made up for the slow pace in some areas. I'm not really complaining, I have read other books that have more world building at the beginning and ease the reader into the story purposefully and it is a writing style that I do enjoy (as long as the payoff is worth it). I merely want to encourage other readers to take it all in because it will indeed be worth it.

Jim Gaffigan has made a career out of finding the extraordinary in the ordinary with his hilarious observational style. In his sixth special, he uses humor to deal with the unthinkable & proves that laughter is the best medicine…or is it?

My husband and I love Jim Gaffigan. We listened to Dad Is Fat when our first kid was young, during a road trip. His parent humor is spot on! From that point on we knew we could just laugh at the absurdity and joy of being an average person struggling through the trenches and the dun of Parenthood. Noble Ape had us laughing again on our recent road trip with 2 kids in tow. Somehow he manages to make the mundane of life and even the scariest moments of his own life hilarious. His self-deprecation is something that only makes us laugh harder. I love Jim Gaffigan!
