There’s always one word in Malermans books that grinds my gears and makes me cringe every time I see it. This books word is Daddo. If I never see it again it’ll be too soon. 

This is written in a different format from a kids POV so it’s a quick read. That being said, I’m not exactly sure I understood the ending. Or maybe I did and I was unfulfilled? 

It’s about Bela and her Ned Flanders dad and terrible mother (I can’t even think of a synonymous character) who are plagued with Other Mommy. 

Stuff happens, the dogs live, and maybe we learn a lesson about innocence and gratitude and demons I guess.
