Joint Custody is told entirely from Gatz's point of view. Yep, the dog tells the story. Basically, what it all comes down to is Gatz getting in no small amount of trouble as he tries to get "The Man" and "The Woman" back together again. And he really knows how to cause some trouble.
While I wouldn't exactly call this a romance, it is billed as a romantic comedy. I'll split the difference and agree that it's a comedy. Gatz's story-telling is witty and fun, and there are plenty of laughs along his journey. I don't want to spoil it, but I will say that the ending surprised me at first. Then I thought about it, and it kind of made sense after everything that happened.
To sum it up, this first book in The Gatz Chronicles is engaging and I was thoroughly entertained from start to finish. It's well written, fast-paced, and Gatz is a terrific character.
