Reviews

Jomny Suns incredible writing knocks you to the floor, breathless, then scoops you up and gives you a kiss where it hurts before it occurs to you to cry. Read this book only if you want to feel more alive. Lin-Manuel Miranda Jomny Sun has created a frightened, hopeful view of Life As We Know It from the perspective of a weirdly relatable alien intelligence. Fantastic. Patton Oswalt Impressively sincere, at times insightful, and humorous. Suns fans will welcome his first book with wild enthusiasm Library Journal
