The bad writing style and bad processing of the story made the book quite excruciating and unreadable. Come for the butterflies, and stay for Mans McKenny's acerbic authorial eye which examines the complexities of the Midwest and its quiet dramas. Edward Melillo, with great affection and respect, reminds us not to forget that we share the planet with an amazing menagerie of remarkable creatures, many of them six-legged.

This is the extraordinary, triumphant story of a modern lyrical prophet and an American icon who has given hope to those buckling under the weight of systemic oppression, reminding everyone that through it all, "we gon' be alright". Greta Oto is an especially unique protagonist - an unpleasant grouch, whom I think would thrive living in this current pandemic.

The main characters behaviour annoyed the heck out of me, she was always the victim… A whole lot of questions were posed, the mythology suggested, but never explored, the characters weren’t able to resolve any of the problems set up during the novel and then the book just ended. Greta Oto is a wonderfully flawed character who prefers the company of butterflies—or any bug actually—to real people. But, ah, yes, I'm forgetting: Greta had a brilliant scientific mind, and was better at creating insect traps than Brandon.
