I don't know, I can't read this book. Actually, it's both interesting and not. I wanted to read it and I wanted to drop it at the same time. I found it to be a bit disturbing, a type of disturbing I can't manage right now.
So hilarious, I have a dry sense of humor and parts of this were sending me. Listening to the audiobook was great, I was cackling at work.
If you're a serious person and have trouble laughing at morbidity, death, literal shit, people going senile, avoid this book.
A few of my favorite quotes:
“She was good for a dollar or two.”
“I saw her as a benign ghost...until you needed a little spending money”
