What a strange book. Such a wild ride. A pumpkin that a little girl gets turns into a dog that she then grows up with, and 10 years later they both get abducted by aliens. Then the dog turns into a cyborg man on a ghost ship... and it's a romance between the girl and what for most of her life was her dog. I legit could not get past that. However, it reached a point after the ship aspect was over in which the plot not only got way better, but I started to feel more detached from the nasty "dog beastiality" of it all. I think the second half of the book was way better than the beginning, and honestly this would have been a fantastic read if it was more simplistic. I'll give the author this though: the book makes for an excellent talking point in book-related liveshows and among friends. I don't know if I would recommend this or not... maybe just if you're really curious.
