Not Json, it's a string with object literals

[JasonDWilson]

JSON looks like this { "name":"json" }

object literal looks like this { name: "object literal" }

what athena-express returns is '{ name: "string of object literal" }'

Is there something I can do to get it return json? I'm currently parsing it and stringifying the results to get well formed json, but there are edge cases where it errors.
