Junk Stores, Animal Shelters, and Death submitted by sdunav on June 12, 2015, 1:48pm Funny and poignant novel set in some of Detroit's seedy suburbs. And the junk (the main character is a junk/thrift store dealer) - I love reading about historical junk! Parts of the book were disturbing - one character works at a very 80's-90's animal shelter with a high kill rate. But I enjoyed the writing style, and the storyline about disintegrating families and parental death. Just a fun book (despite the dark portions I just mentioned).
