While the plot of the story is a rather common one, Ahern is a master in writing about it in such as way that it is unique to read. In her novel, she combines some elements of humor and also some elements of seriousness in order to create a balance that would really appeal to the readers. Most importantly, the love story of the two characters is very touching and one can see the development of the two through their rather odd relationship.

The thing about covering suicide and life problems is that these topics are rather hard to cover. What makes the novel amazing is how Ahern covered them. She made the novel very enjoyable to read and also quite light with a heavy topic such as the harshness of life.

For those who are after this kind of story, this is definitely a must read. Through the life stories of both the characters, one can actually see how life really is through their eyes. It is definitely a story for those who want something to make them feel warm and fuzzy inside.
