Rowley has a talent for making readers belly-laugh on one page and sob on the next. His talent to provoke such emotions can be credited to his ability to write well-rounded characters with complicated lives. If you enjoyed The Guncle (Rowley’s most popular book), I encourage you to read this book as well. Actually, you might as well just read all of Rowley’s books while you’re at it, as they have all been wonderful, and The Celebrants is no exception.
