This book is bizarre, and quirky, and not really a novel by any typical description. But it’s funny, and poignant, and emotionally touching. It’s got an entertaining premise, featuring, of all things, adverbs. If you read it in public, people assume it’s a textbook. It’s really not. The characters are unforgettable, even if they’re never developed. You’ll learn a lot about love. Or you won’t. I suppose that’s the point.
