Why read it?

1 author picked When the Moon Hits Your Eye as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I loved the first half of the book but was challenged by the second half, because it took a turn in tone and became less hijinks/hilarious and far darker/moodier. There were many laugh out loud moments and I was really having a lot of fun with the basic premise, as well as jumping through multiple POVs that were all interconnected. In the end, despite all the comic elements, it asked some really big questions about how humans would realistically cope with a very serious (albeit zany) threat.
