Don't read if you're in a "low" head space, or questioning your existence. Not the kind of catharsis you'd need.knowriley's review against another edition

The narrator is vapid, gross, entirely self-absorbed. Her best friend is actually quite sweet. It’s interesting to read from the unpleasant character’s perspective. There’s just no plot, only a premise. The ending was lacking anything spectacular, which I guess is fitting since nothing spectacular happens throughout.
I enjoyed the author’s style of writing and prose. I just can’t really say how much I enjoyed the book overall? I’m really torn on this one.

Despite that, she is incredibly relatable (a year is sleep sounds so nice) it was almost a comfort to read someone’s thoughts who had no filter. All the bad thoughts that would cause me to pause and retract, she would carry on with. Unashamedly. She makes no effort at being kind. Her depression was overwhelming and her grief all consuming and if we saw her at a different point in life, maybe she would be different.
Had there been real consequences for her behavior and actions and had her drug abuse been addressed in any manner at the end, this would probably have been a five star read.
Also, Reva deserved better

No plot just a deep reflection on life, depression and holding something for too long for the sake of it.
