Karen + Bloo. Adventures and Thoughts on Things.
//TLDR// In a word: Meh. The book felt long and contrived in many ways (ie. if slapstick similes are a thing…you can find them here). No warm fuzzies and 33% mildly entertaining. However, as someone who’s guilty pleasure is binge-reading trashy books, there are better …
