There's a (Slight) Chance I Might Be Going to Hell: A Novel of Sewer Pipes, Pageant Queens, and Big Trouble by Laurie Notaro

2.0

If you are looking for a book with a deeply irritating, entitled protagonist trying to make a friend in a town full of over-the-top hippie stereotypes, this book might fit your bill. It's silly and accessible and maybe someone else might find it fun, but I just found it slow and obnoxious. The first half of the book is mostly about protagonist Maye Roberts trying and failing to make friends in her new town because everyone she meets is at least a little weird, and she's pretty judgmental. Finally things get moving when she decides to join the local Sewer Pipe Queen pageant, but Maye doesn't really have a character arc, the attempts at humor fell flat, and there were no real plot twists to hold my interest.
