Favorite this year?

It is rare that I think something is so good I give it 6⭐️ but…. Oh my god. This is easily my favorite book of the year and possibly in my favorite 5 of all time. Highly recommend. I laughed, I cried and I was locked in the whole time.

That sounds like a really good book. The cover is kinda spooky though lol. I'm not sure what I'm looking at but the eyes creep me out a tiny bit. Is it about an animal or fictional? I've been looking for a new book to read recently too.
