One of the best books I have read recently. The author writes in a way that conveys emotions through the words rather than explicitly stating them. The mood of the writing changes, which makes the book dynamic. Best line: "I gave them their Devil's Trill..."

Turns out the main character already gave this book a movie rating, "Rated PG-13. For language and mild s*xual situations."

The writing of this book was so wacky and it took forever to understand (and I believe it is good that I did not understand all of it if you know what I mean).

Content: loads of language (multiple f-bombs per page), lots of s*xual references, I would personally rate this higher than PG-13 on the movie rating scale.

From ALSC: "This humorous and wondrous adventure of a boy and his magical dog is a timeless coming-of-age story marked by masterful world-building." From Kirkus: "A hilarious, heartfelt triumph."
