| Why to Read: | Tapping into mid-life crisis angst with ease and great irony, this sets up a fantastic premise as the two protagonists are forced to watch their father find happiness just as their love lives fall apart, and are expected to be joyful about it. Consistent jokes, gags, and wacky dialogue help to emphasize the hilarious idiosyncrasies of these wild characters to great effect. Jealous, ignorant, and entirely flawed, these characters exude humor at every turn. The fun fantasy sequences are a particular highlight, providing tons of comedy as well as psychological insight into our characters that really lets them jump off the page. |
