I honestly really enjoyed this book. It has been on my TBR since it was announced and when I got a copy of it from Libro FM as an ARC, I jumped at the chance to listen.
I am a 1992 millennial to my core and listening to a book that talked about my childhood and what it was like to grow up in the early and mid nineties was kind of healing and cathartic. I may even give this a second listen because it honestly felt like listening to a podcast or your best friend talk to you.

A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo by Jill Twiss

So, I bought this on Audible considering Jim Parsons, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and RuPaul are a few of the narrators. I also couldn’t wait for it to come back in stock to read it. This will be in my future children’s bedrooms and I will read it to them before bed. Even if it’s a parody, it was brilliant and heartwarming. God, I just really loved this.
