    “Mix Our Town with Annie Hartnett's signature dry, dark humor, and you've got this wildly entertaining, small town delight narrated by ghosts and beset by ever snowballing chaos. “People talk a lot about first loves, or the love of your life, but people don’t say as much about the friend of your life.””

    “Small town ghosts narrate a magical realism take on opioids, substitute teaching, and dementia. Not a fluffy subject matter, but wrapped up in a delightful story. Couldn’t put it down.”
