The Rest of Us Just Live Here

I have a weakness for a good pretentious meta-concept and this is sooo good omg

I just loved it

I'd give it to teens who are already big readers, they'll appreciate what Ness is doing with big YA tropes and characters here.

but also, content warning for eating disorders & mental illness–some readers are going to want it more for that of course, but you wouldn't necessarily expect to find it in this book so it might take some readers by unpleasant surprise.

also the god of cats <3

I got a little wince-y when I thought Jared was going to magically cure Mike's mental illness but I shoulda known betterrr
