This book is really engaging and fast-paced, with an interesting road trip/heist plot that carries it to an abrupt and subversive end, but it has a serious problem with verisimilitude. The stakes grow comically high as Winona and Lucille encounter increasingly illegal and elaborate activities and never once brush up against the police. I believe it is intended to be empowering, and it accomplishes that goal, but I came out of this book thinking "how the hell did they not end up in jail?"

they totally pulled the Jared's Parents (Silicon Valley HBO) thing with Winona's mom! I know some people seem upset by this ending but I really liked it. It was a nice parallel to Lucille's dad.
