How to describe this book? It’s about a bank robbery that turns into a hostage situation. It’s about idiots. It’s about a bridge, where one person jumped and another person didn’t. It’s about how our actions effect people in ways we could never predict. It’s lighthearted while also being deeply meaningful. In conclusion: it’s just really, really good.
