the best parts of this book, in order:
tied for first place- krazy kat not dying. ansel being hella fucking dead in a dead field of dead wheat like the piece of dead trash he is.
2. neva was cute.
3. I briefly got heated when I thought this was going to be a book about Mormons and I'm glad it wasn't about Mormons because I would've hated it more.
4. California sounded lush at least.

honestly, the more I think about it the more I hate it. I didn't want to write this review on mobile because I wanted to be sure to hide the spoiler and I downgraded it to 1 star. I keep thinking about how mad this book made me.
