lighthearted relaxing

I didn't hate it. some of the topics touched on were relatable and important to me but they were explored on such a surface level that it didn't bring me any particular enjoyment or insight. the writing style was too forced and stacked with bad metaphors. this is a book written from the worst of white feminist perspectives, privileged, naive and boring while aiming to offer somewhat political takes lol

Protagonist too naive, also not a fan of non explicitly stated TWs (drugs,l and alcohol abuse). A book about pretty privilege, def not my cup of tea.

Nostalgia trip of the early 2000s was fun and then all the drinking and drugs was tiring and repetitive. Many stories may have been fun at the time for the people that were there, it just didn't translate that way onto the page. Didn't find her privilege relatable.  Worst of all, she writes as if she's self aware without actually developing any self awareness.

I think I just didn’t relate that much to this. It seemed a little unstructured to me at times. But I enjoyed most of the chapters at the end.

I think this is a great book to read in your twenties to remind you that most of the thoughts you’ve had haven’t been unique and that there’s more than one way to live and more than one kind of love. It made me sad at times and angry at others. And at others still it spoke to me as if it were my own brain. Read at 29 and I think that’s probably just perfect. Made me love my friends more for who they are and what they give me and I them.

i just wanted to highlight 2 of my favourite parts (of many)

you're going to have to make a lifestyle choice between gel nail manicures and playing guitar

When you’re looking for love and it seems like you might not ever find it, remember you probably have access to an abundance of it already, just not the romantic kind. This kind of love might not kiss you in the rain or propose marriage. But it will listen to you, inspire and restore you. It will hold you when you cry, celebrate when you’re happy, and sing All Saints with you when you’re drunk. You have so much to gain and learn from this kind of love. You can carry it with you forever. Keep it as close to you as you can.
