This book is not intended for everyone. Joe is a vile human that does disgusting and offensive things, both to himself and to others.
Meet Joe, a professional thief with a knack for finding the interesting spots in life—like the cramped closet of a centuries-old Victorian mansion. With crap timing, Joe goes in to pilfer a few trinkets. To avoid ultimately get caught, he stumbles upon the worst hiding spot imaginable... which is also the best thing that ever happened to him. With filthy floors, secret passageways, and more cobwebs than he ever asked for, he decides this would be the perfect place to plant some roots. There’s so much dust, so little time, and let’s be honest—a whole lot of sweat involved. Will he settle down and play house? One man’s quest for a place to belong will leave you wondering just how much he can really get away with—especially when the home is already occupied.
This was a fun read. It had its gross and yuck moments, had its sexually inappropriate moments, AND it had its hilarious moments (which I’m thankful for it being fiction otherwise I’m pretty sure I’d get a one way ticket to hell for laughing) but I think what I liked most of all was the manipulation that was performed because honestly, it was pretty damn clever. And that epilogue, I am definitely looking forward to a second book! I loved this!
Really enjoyed reading this one. This is the first splatterpunk book that actually succeeded in making my stomach turn (the scene from chapter 7).
However, it really needed to be proofread. At first, it wasn't too bad, but in the second half of the book, there were spelling mistakes and a lot of grammatical errors, which was a tad distracting.
