This novel is charming, hilarious, and features quite a wacky cast of characters. Just like in Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Book Store by this author, I didn’t love the underlying programming/computer career focus. And yet it managed to serve a relevant purpose to the plot, so it wasn’t that bad in the end.

Didn’t quite meet my ongoing hopes for a 5-star novel featuring sourdough, but it was a very fun time nonetheless.
