Vivian is so relatable to the female psyche that you want to hate her, but you can’t, because staunchly hating her would ignore how much you have in common with her.
The writing is refreshingly modern without being cringey (which doesn’t mean that you won’t cringe at Vivian, but to her credit, she is funny).
I really think this book is a fantastic snapshot of the modern anxious woman and how she must navigate a world that is positively fucked.
