God-Shaped Hole

If “Everything, Everything” by Nicola Yoon and “All the Bright Places” by Jennifer Niven had a sexually-charged book baby, this would be it. Now, to be fair, “God-Shaped Hole” was written nearly a decade and a half before those two books, but still...

I had no idea what this book was about but it kept calling my name each time I walked past it in the bookstore. I read the first page - which seemed interesting enough - so I bought it and binged it.

This was nearly the perfect novel for me to read right now. The only thing that I would have changed was all of the nonchalant “sex stuff”; I would have removing most of it. Wow, I sound like such a prude. Lol. God-Shaped Hole had the three things that I usually enjoy most in when I'm taking a break from nonfiction: witty dialogue, meaningful connections, and utter devastation. I can see why some people would hate the book, but it did the trick on filling my God-Shaped Hole for the time being.
